Niels Diffrient rethinks the way we sit down - Watch the video!
Humanscale’s Diffrient World chair by legendary designer Niels Diffrient will debut on June 15 – 17. Utilizing the laws of physics instead of complex mechanisms and controls, the Humanscale Diffrient World chair represents ultimate simplicity in a high-performance task chair.
Like its older sibling, the award-winning Liberty chair, the Diffrient
World chair features Form-Sensing Mesh Technology that ensures perfect
lumbar support for every user without the external, manually adjusted
lumbar devices found on all other mesh chairs. Made from just eight major parts and weighing less than 25 pounds, the new chair incorporates Humanscale’s signature weight-sensitive recline to offer recline resistance that is automatically customized for every user. Additionally, a mesh seat pan with a frameless front edge provides all-day comfort with soft support under the thighs.
By achieving high levels of performance and functionality with just 80 parts overall—less than one-third the parts of traditional task chairs—the Diffrient World chair is assured of long-term durability that far exceeds that of traditional chairs. Quite simply, fewer parts, controls and mechanisms translate into fewer things that can go wrong over time. As such, the Diffrient World chair is backed by a 15-year warranty, including two- and three-shift usage, which makes it the best warranty in the industry.
The Diffrient World chair is also unmatched in sustainability. Its light weight and minimal-part design significantly reduce its environmental impact by requiring less raw material and fewer manufacturing processes for its creation. As a result, two to three Diffrient World chairs have the same overall environmental impact as a single traditional task chair. Its durability as well as modularity for easy in-field upgrades further minimize its carbon footprint by ensuring a long life of service. And when the chair does finally need to be replaced, its simple design with so few parts makes disassembly a snap so that 95% of its components can easily be recycled.
The Diffrient World chair offers fixed or adjustable armrests that move with the sitter for continuous ergonomic support during recline. An armless model is also available, along with an optional upholstered seat cushion that floats on a mesh support structure for exceptional sitting comfort.
Full production of the Diffrient World chair will begin in July. List pricing starts at $740 and the chair will debut with three mesh styles, a variety of mesh colors, and three frame color options: black, silver or white.
