"Available with a lustrous wood or colorful plastic shell, Trua has
perfect form with its curves and valleys. Its overall width, contours,
and stackability make it an instant seat favorite for many applications
in workplace settings."

"This elegant stool is as comfortable as it is
beautiful. The ash construction is solidly anchored
and accented by a polished chrome interior bezel,
with the option of a wood or upholstered seat.
A classic design, it is poised to complement
a variety of interior aesthetic styles."

"Proving that there is always room for reinvention
and improvement, this classic introduced
in 1994 is now, amazingly, even more comfortable.
The 8Z pellicle suspension cleverly supports
a healthy seated posture."

"Allseating's Tuck bar stool is designed to be both
compact and sturdy. The minimalist lines of the
framework tuck under tables smoothly, offering
a clean and comfortable seat. The profile and depth
of the stool allow for optimal back support."

"The design of the Fern chair from Haworth takes into account
the entire back, not just the lumbar area, making it a comfortable
and ergonomic choice for standard-height desks. The color options
are customizable, providing versatility to the chair's functional,
supportive frame."

"The Groove stacking side chair is a great
casual seating option for breakout spaces
with its simple yet substantial frame. The chair's
balanced engineering combines aesthetic appeal
with easy stacking to quickly free up space
within a flexible workplace."

total flexibility and fun into the workplace.
Its whimsical approach provides the practicality
and functionality needed in today's ever-changing
agile office environments."

"Knoll's Rockwell Unscripted collection offers dynamic solutions
for the work setting by allowing the user to mingle and collaborate
while maximizing the use of the real estate."
