The Importance Of Quality Office Seating

Seating in the office has a higher importance than many workers would think. It is estimated that at least 80% of the time spent by the average office worker is spent seated at their desk or workstation. This can lead to a number of different problems caused by poor quality seating.

One of the most common complaints is a stiff back, neck pain or even wrist pain associated with stretching due to an incorrect chair height.

The Eames office chair was designed with these complaints in mind and how to tackle them. It was designed to be comfortable yet also functional at giving the right support in the right areas.

The Eames chair has been seen in various forms over the years. The whole range features chairs for use both indoors and outdoors. The most popular is the office chair because of its great looks and functionality.

The Eames office chair is famous for its sleek lines and timeless design. Some designs have been around for literally decades yet still fit into the modern office effortlessly. It is strange to think that their contemporary design is often generations old!

Charles and Ray Eames were the original designers. They designed the chair for a private residence for Eero Saarinen and Alex Girard. The designs have now lived on and are infamous for their style and comfort.

The design of the Eames office chair addresses the time office workers spend in their chair. As it can be home to the worker for up to 8 hours of solid seating, it has been designed to be incredibly comfortable. It stops strain by offering support to the body. The Eames chair is also designed to offer additional support to the lower back. This also helps to stop poor posture with the positive side effect of eliminating back pain and neck strain.

The Eames chair doesn't just look great, it also is highly functional. The difference about an Eames office chair and a typical generic office chair is that it has been designed with the user in mind first, rather than being designed to a budget.

There are lots of Eames office chair options. These variations include the soft pad chair, the mesh chair and the ribbed chair. Each chair is different. Each variant also has its own niche. There are also two height options on most Eames office chairs. There are the high backed options and the standard chairs.

The high back offers more support. They are also ideal for those who sometimes need to sit back or recline while thinking or viewing and so on. The lower back chairs are more suitable for smaller offices. They are also better suited for office workers who are consistently getting up out of their seat or moving around.

The Eames chair has been around for generations. The design, levels of comfort and high quality of styling has seen it grow a bigger and bigger audience. This is likely to continue long in to the future. With the number of people working in an office drastically increasing every year it is likely that quality seating will become more and more important. The Eames office chair was designed to tackle these issues.
