PearsonLloyd’s Cobi was designed for Steelcase with three observations in mind: that chairs should promote movement and be comfortable for long periods of time, adjustments should be automatic and intuitve, and chairs should support multiple postures. Each element of Cobi was designed to flex and adjust to your body. The top flexing edge lets you comfortably rest your arm on top of the chair, the flexing seat enables you to shift your weight around by allowing you to sit centered or off to the sides, while the flexing back contours to support any posture. The weight-activated mechanism naturally puts you at the best postion of comfort by sensing your center of gravity. This super smart award-winning chair comes in a variety of stylish bright colors, so perfect for modernizing an office space.
