» This is the most versatile and usable
product I've seen.
» The design is very intriguing and inviting.
It beckons users to be a part of it. I can see
it being used in higher education and office
environments. Nicely styled, it has a design
presence in the built environment.
» I like how it can be ganged side to side and
back to back. I am very impressed with this
out-of-the-box thinking in solving acoustical
issues for privacy. I would encourage its use
for even private phone conversations in lieu
of a phone booth type built solution.
» Great solution with lighting and power
integration. I like the tablet arms.
» Looks like built-in. It's a smart solution
for a non-permanent bench. Aesthetically
amazing.
LeanTo
Gold Award: Acoustic Privacy & Modular Solutions
London-based Webb Associates also designed two other award-winning
products for OFS: The beautifully upholstered Kasura chair embraces the
contours of the end user's body to offer a comfortable sit for any conference
setting. And LeanTo creates nooks for private, quiet workspace within today's
less-private, open-plan office environment. Roger Webb from Webb Associates
discusses the inspiration behind the two products and how they each
contribute to the built environment. ofs.com
What were you hoping to accomplish with the designs of Kasura and LeanTo?
We designed Kasura to offer an array of aesthetics coupled with incredible
comfort. With Kasura it's all about choice. Available in three different heights
(low-, mid-, and high-back), five different base styles, and three outer back
materials, Kasura provides options to create a cohesive feel throughout the
office. The elegant surround that nestles into the back of the chair can be
dressed with an exposed ash veneer in multiple finish options, 11 standard
or studio paint colors, or any non-directional fabric.
LeanTo, on the other hand, was designed in response to today's open-plan
office environment to create spots for seclusion and privacy. With multiple tablet
72
and shelf options, lighting, power, as well as color and texture selections, LeanTo
creates individualized private space to adequately suit the needs of the end user.
How do the functionality of each product add to their usefulness in
commercial interiors?
One of the key features of Kasura is its incredible comfort. This chair
started with seating rigs that were adjusted time and again to get the correct
ergonomic sit for the broadest range of body types and functions. In addition
to comfort we wanted to give clients the freedom of choice. From paints
to veneer or upholstery on the back to different base styles and heights, Kasura
provides a host of options to satisfy aesthetic and functional needs.
Following in-depth observation and research for LeanTo, we arrived
at an aesthetic for this product that feels as if it was built into the office, offering
a respite within a bustling workspace. We don't want to specify how to use it for
designers; we offer options so that designers can specify how they see it being
used, though we do envision LeanTo working well in areas such as hallways,
alcoves, and under staircases, where spots for quiet contemplation or private
conversation might be useful.
