Responsive Shapeshifting Seating Solutions

The Joyride Design CUBA 'Chool' Chair is Office-Ready

— October 26, 2020 — Art & Design
The Joyride Design CUBA 'Chool' chair is a stylish and cleverly designed furniture solution for the office environment that will provide sitters with a comfortable spot to relax, while still accommodating the design needs of the space.

The chair features a cubic design that is compact, space-saving and chic, and will shift in shape upon sitting to reveal a backrest in the rear section. This is achieved with a specialized system that will drop the seat itself ever so slightly, while extending the backrest for the perfect place to sit and get work done.

The Joyride Design CUBA 'Chool' chair is also, thanks to its compact and shapeshifting design, highly applicable for storage to tuck it under tables when not in use.
