10 trendy and comfortable office chairs

Whether working at home or in the company, choose your office chair carefully. Ergonomic, aesthetic, comfortable, technical, it must be all of these at the same time. Discover our selection to furnish your interior with a comfortable and design seat.

The seat is an essential element of the workstation. Choosing an office chair can be compared to choosing a car. The more options and technicality there are, the higher the price. When buying a chair, you have to take into account the comfort, characteristics, look, sensory (natural or synthetic fibers), while staying within your budget … But whatever your choice, always try a chair before you buy it. “The ideal office chair should adapt to your physiognomy, accompany your movements and be adjustable to your preferences”, explains Elena Van Ginderdeuren, Interior Stylist & Trends Watcher at OOO.

TIPS FOR A DYNAMIC WORK

Homeworking can rhyme with various and varied workstations. If you want to set up your workspace at home with a suitable office chair, nothing prevents you from varying the pleasures by changing the location within your home. According to the concept of “activity based working”, depending on the task to be accomplished, one will prefer this or that place or this or that seat. Sometimes opt for an office chair, sometimes for a stool, or even stand or sit in an armchair. Without forgetting to take a break every 2 hours!

THE RIGHT POSITIONS TO ADOPT ON AN OFFICE CHAIR

• Keep the back of the neck straight in line with the spine.
• Keep your back straight in direct contact with the chair. Without sticking the shoulders to the back of the office chair, nor bending the upper back.
• Position the upper edge of the screen at the height of the field of vision.
• Adjust the height of the seat so that the thighs are horizontal (90°).
• Place your feet flat on the floor.
• Adjust the depth of the seat so that there is a distance of approximately two finger widths between the edge of the seat and the hollow of the knee.
• Adjust the backrest so that the back is well supported. The lumbar reinforcements (the rounded part at the bottom of the backrest) must fit the hollow of the back.
• Place your elbows close to your body and form a 90 ° angle between your arm and forearm, relieving your back with the armrests.
