ESAD Reims student Yuan Yuan has designed a chair that will keep you fit despite a full work week.
Inspired by tai chi, a form of martial arts composed of slow movements and practiced for health benefits, this chair actually functions as an exercise tool. The legs of the chair and its padded head allow you to stretch your limbs during long, stressful hours at the office. This chair will give you the much-needed exercise that is often neglected during the week.
