Image: KI Furniture. Featuring ‘dynamic orbital motion’ the Sway chair is billed as the first to allow the sitter to, ‘move front to back, side to side and everywhere in between with a smooth 360-degree swivel’.
The Sway chair was specifically designed to capitalise on the trend for office workers to move away from their desks and collaborate with colleagues in more casual spaces. The four-legged base and high-backed contoured seat egg-shaped shell are made from rotationally moulded polyethylene with removable upholstered seat and back pads added to provide comfort. A coordinating ottoman and occasional table are also available as part of the range.
