The Steelcase Gesture office chair redefines the relationship between you and your desk chair. Voted best office chair, its 360-degree arms, contoured back and adjustments are designed for all the ways technology shapes your posture.
New technologies combined with new behaviors have led to nine new Postures that are not adequately addressed by current seating solutions. There are ergonomic implications to these postures that, if not addressed, cause pain and discomfort.
Steelcase discovered that new technologies demand new ways of moving and working.
The physiology of today’s new technologies and their impact on the human body has greatly been ignored. Much of today’s seating was designed to support the very traditional one-task, one-technology, one-posture experience. With today’s multiple devices, our body is forced to respond to these small technologies, leaving much of the body unsupported.
The sociology of work has changed. Work is an inherently social process that requires people to rapidly shift between individual, focused tasks and creative collaboration. Each new activity causes us to change postures. Generational and gender differences also impact our posture preferences.
