Information
Alki, in partnership with Iratzoki & Lizaso Studio, launches its office chair designed for people who don’t like office chairs.
Two years ago, Iratzoki & Lizaso Design Studio and Alki, the Basque furniture manufacturer, set themselves a challenge: create an office chair that complies with the ergonomic codes of this category of furniture while also adhering to the Alki universe, characterized by warmth and emotional attachment.
The functional characteristics of the Lan chair are inconspicuous: the mechanism disappears under the seat and the armrests form an integral part of the backrest. Meticulous work has been carried out on the shape, the contact zones and the choice of materials in order to create a congenial and comfortable object. Wood, Alki’s favourite material, is used in both inside and outside the seat.
The functionality of the Lan chair enables it to adapt to all morphologies, and the synchronous mechanism integrated in the seat is self-adjusting. It tailors the tension of the backrest according to the weight of the user. The backrest can be locked in three different tilt positions and its shape has been designed to allow the user maximum freedom of twisting movement.
The Lan Collection satisfies all office chair functions: three backrest heights for the rotating models and a low-back visitor’s chair with four wooden legs.
