Work. Live.

December 2nd, 2008

As the boundaries continue to blur between our work, play and home lives, so does our understanding of what we need from our furniture design.

We no longer require a chair just for work: our dining tables are increasingly becoming our home offices and our offices, social meeting places.

This was the inspiration behind Interstuhl’s ‘Pios’ chair, sold in Australia through Emanate. The chair is as much at home at the dinner table as it is in the office.

The comfortable, cantilevered Pios chair is designed for living, working, admiring and providing a sense of well-being.

In a similar way the ‘Goal’ chair from Interstuhl also recognises the need to unwind at work. It offers a range of solutions for everyday ergonomic relaxation, from executive mesh swivel chairs to cushioned cantilever designs.

Both these beautiful chair designs, available from Emanate, are GECA approved and incredibly affordable with Pois starting from just $340 + GST and the Goal from $500 + GST.

Having been designed in close consultation with leading ergonomics specialists, every Interstuhl chair responds to any given situation ergonomically, offering the user silent therapeutic assistance.

Emanate receive all chair components from Intersthul in Germany and they are then made in Australia. The Pios and Goal ranges are available to try today at Emanate showrooms in Sydney, Melbourne and Canberra.
