Many offices are familiar with adjustable chairs. The natural progression from a hard plastic chair in school to a more comfortable adjustable chair in the workplace is a natural one but there could be a next step coming up as the Modena chair doesn't just adjust, it fits the body.
At first the chair doesn't look that innovative; the style itself looks good but it looks just like a stylish chair. The true trick behind this chair though is the lever underneath it.
All adjustable chairs have levers to varying degrees but this one lever beats them all in one way. Whereas other chairs are static with their adjustments, the Modena chair adjusts to the way many of us sit -- more laid back when away from the computer and upright when close to the computer. With this chair, you'll always be sitting in the right way no matter what you're doing.
