The 'Switch2' chair has been designed by Nicholas Fiedler of the Muthesius Art Academy in Kiel, Germany as part of his Bachelor's thesis that is intended to provide a person with a balanced place to sit that will adapt according to their needs.
The chair is constructed with a a long backrest and a short seat that can be reversed thanks to a rolling movement system in the base of the furniture piece. The chair is thus suited for professional work at the office or in the classroom, while also accommodating those with different needs or who might be looking to shift positions when taking a break.
The 'Switch2' chair has received an award from the baunetz id online German magazine.
