Polar
Innovation overview and development
An overview of the product
Designed by Jorge Pensi, Polar is a task chair that ensures maximum customization in terms of ergonomics with its simple and intuitive built-in mechanisms. Its organic form is designed to adapt to the human body, ensuring the well-being of its users. Polar is available as a chair or armchair.
How the new product was developed, including effective collaboration, knowledge transfer and partnership along the project team
The backrest consists of an injected-moulded nylon frame with a breathable, flexible polyester mesh for a sense of transparency.
The injection-moulded polypropylene support at the lumbar area may be adjusted to the user’s needs. This element may be covered in the same fabric as the seat, for utmost customisation.
The seat, in polyurethane foam, can move via a special mechanism that allows its depth to be adjusted. The chair guarantees excellent comfort thanks to its weight-activated, synchro-tilt mechanism that is able to regulate the degree of tilting autonomously according to the user’s body weight. The minimalist minimalist armrests of the armchair can be adjusted in height, depth and width, and can be orientated to suit the user’s needs.
How can this product enhance an interior space
Polar is a dynamic object with a clear identity, it can fit into a variety of settings such as offices, multipurpose spaces and even homes, as they evolve and become increasingly hybrid.
