Details
With the chairfamily MELA an attempt is made to summarize the “capabilities” of a chairconcept for a modern and sustainable office - living – hospitality and work program. It consists of one plastic and two laminated wooden shells and several bases and upholsteries each systemically fitting. The shape of each shell follows the idea of non-orientated sitting. This “freedom of sitting” leads to a natural, playful handling, which the design underlines with its playful shape. MELA offers a system which enables endusers to decide what they want to go for.
The Jury‘s Statement
The freedom of sitting is at the core of »MELA«, giving the system a remarkable versatility. The confident interplay of ergonomic shell, subtle form and a wide range of matching bases impresses in demanding work environments. Especially striking is the consistently user-centred design, which puts flexibility and personal preferences at the forefront. A characterful, timeless product family that sets standards at the highest level.
