About Swift Office Chair

Swift is an office chair inspired by the posture of a swift bird. The lower end of the back frame recalls the tail of the bird and suggests a free and positive attitude. A double-layer frame gives the backrest a layered appearance. The inner frame curves inward, so the knitted mesh forms a concave arc that wraps and supports the back. The frame is made of nylon by integrated injection molding, and the backrest uses a high elastic knitted mesh fabric. The chair reclines up to 23 degrees and can be locked. The armrests and the seat depth are adjustable.

Unique Properties: The back shape of the back frame gives this product a more individual style. Swift combines the unique shape with comfortable ergonomic elements, and the special concave arc of the seat back provides users with a better back wrapping feeling.The double -layer frame design makes the back of the chair look more rich in layers.

Production Technology: The process of using integrated injection molding, and nylon is the main material. The back uses high elastic knitted mesh fabrics.
Design Challenge: During the production process of the chair, the assembly of the double -layer frame structure and knitted fabric is extremely complicated.
Project Duration: The project began in May 2020, completed in April 2021, and was launched in May 2021. The entire project lasted for a year.
Operation Flow: The chair can be dumped backwards 23 °, and at the same time, it can be locked through the switch of the chassis. The handrail can rise up and down, slide back and forth, and rotate left and right. You can adjust the depth of the cushion according to different usage habits.
Research: The Swift wants to break the conventional office chair back design. It adopts a new double -layer frame design. The inner frame is more curved, so that users can better wrap them in the mesh when they fall backwards.
Inspiration: The shape of the seat is taken from the posture of a swift, and the shape of the lower end of the back frame is like the tail of a swift, symbolizing a free and positive attitude. At the same time, due to the special shape of the lower end of the back frame, the mesh structure of this seat is different from other seats. The inward mesh structure forms a more concave arc, which can provide users with better back wrapping.
