Comfy High-Backed Office Chairs

Regent by Connection Features a Stylish Campaign

— April 21, 2022 — Art & Design
British office furniture brand Connection boasts an elegant high-backed office chair that combines functionality and aesthetics. The design of the silhouette presents "a chance to escape the distractions of an open-plan workplace." The piece is part of Connection's 'Resimercial' line.

The high-backed office chair boasts a sophisticated design that can be incorporated into a busy workspace or even at the home. The shape of the chair is designed to provide "partial visual and acoustic privacy" that facilitates opportunities for rest and relaxation in open-space and shared environments.

Undoubtedly a statement piece for both minimalist and maximalist interior spaces, the high-backed office chair sits on a four-star wooden leg base. The upholstery complements the silhouette with a thick material that provides plenty of cushion for comfort-focused working and relaxation.
