Formway 2016
MultiGeneration by Knoll® Light Task is a simple, small-scale task chair with a responsive, open design that allows you to fidget to focus. It encourages natural movement, allowing us to focus, interact and collaborate more effectively.
The full, curved back allows for upper body movement and supports the lower back for upright, interactive postures, while a gently contoured seat with rounded corners and a cantilevered arm design lets you shift positions easily. The arms feature contoured arm pads to lean against when side sitting.
The flexing shell of the seat provides comfort and promotes natural movement without the need for a mechanism.
The back of the chair, while visually simple, is designed for performance. The perforated back makes the chair more breathable than typical shell chairs. The rolled top edge serves as an armrest for side sitting and a handle for easy transport.
“We fidget to focus.” This, according to Formway Senior designer, was the central thesis that informed MultiGeneration by Knoll®. Contrary to popular assumption, foot-tapping, pen-twirling and position-shifting actually help people stay engaged.
Therefore, each member of the MultiGeneration by Knoll family, which has continued to grow over the last 5 years, is designed to allow for and encourage movement, while still providing adequate support. The shape and material of the shell give the chairs a buoyancy that prevents the user from feeling “locked in” while the arm and leg positions allow for 270 degrees of movement.
The MultiGeneration family offerns side chairs, light task chairs, high task chairs and stools, each with the consideration and ergonomics of a standalone seating solution.
