LeanChair – The portable, reclining standing desk


Rate This Concept Now!

Overview: Working while standing up is a lot easier said than done. You can force yourself to do it, and fight through the physical pain, but that’s just part of the problem.

Prolonged standing is not normal, and your brain dedicates a lot of resources to a background process called “trying to get comfortable.” And that constantly diverts focus and attention away from your work.

And that’s before you get to the fact that standing up all day isn’t that good for you either.

LeanChair uses a reclining angle that takes about 25% of your bodyweight off your legs, which makes standing a lot easier and less painful.

Ledwork- Interactive Lightforms


Rate This Concept Now!

Overview: “ledwork” is a series of highly tangible, autonomous lights that respond to touch and movement. Connected together with magnets, they form a swarm of light in which new patterns emerge as the lights talk to each other and work in an ever-changing colorful harmony. This invites the user to observe, explore and construct new physical configurations while deepening the connection between object and user.
