'Neos' task chair, mod. 181/6

People differ and so does their physique: there are basket ball giants, featherweights and heavyweights. Ideally, what everybody wants is an office chair to provide an equal level of support and optimal seated comfort. The concept of Neos therefore consistently follows the principle of "sitting without a driving licence", which has been a guiding principle at Wilkhahn for over 25 years: with the simplest and most intuitive operation of all adjustment functions, such as seat height, backrest height, armrest position and adjustment to accommodate the user's weight with synchronous adjustment of the generous, resilient back shell ensuring conformity with individual body types and with automatic promotion of frequent changes in posture to keep muscles, metabolism and circulation in good shape.

Two paddles and a conveniently located crank handle make it child's play for the user to adjust Neos while remaining seated. All functions are integrated in a calm, pleasant and self-explanatory form for optimal seated comfort and design appeal. This goes to show that ergonomics is invariably a question of aesthetics too.
