Be: Movement and Colour

Be chair by Formway Design brings comfort and movement to the workplace, with an added splash of colour.

April 16th, 2012

Be is a task chair that matches your movements, offering freedom and support at the same time.

The way we work is changing, requiring furniture that is flexible and doesn’t restrict us from the range of movements we need to perform each day.

Be responds to human behaviour. With just three standard intuitive adjustments for seat height, seat depth and recline, all other multidirectional movements require no adjustment at all.

The Dynamic suspension offers a smooth, effortless recline motion without the need for manual tension adjustment, while the seat movement is synchronised to keep the eye line virtually constant in different sitting positions.

Be is available from Zenith Interiors in a black or meteor frame with the option of onyx, firecracker, lemongrass or pebble skin.

A lumbar support is an added option, along with arms, polished or nylon base and soft or hard castors.
