Designed by Alena Prokhorova, the Shhh Chair provides ample privacy with its cocoon-like shape. This office chair is ideal for shared workspaces. With two height varieties, the Shhh chair acts as a personal room divider. Its body expands into long panels that surround the user with noise-absorbing material.
When taking a call or working on a focus-requiring task, this privacy chair acts as a sound barrier. Users can opt for one of two heights: the elbow level chair keeps the user focused on their task and allows engagement with others, and the high panel chair acts as a complete privacy barrier. Available in muted beige and brown color schemes, the Shhh Chair fits seamlessly into any design scheme.
