Modern office chair GESTURE®

for indoor usevinylleather

Overview
Gesture redefines the relationship between a user and their desk chair. Engineered to support contemporary multi-device work, Gesture provides dynamic spinal support, 360° arm articulation and precise adjustments to accommodate a wide range of postures and body types.

Key benefits

• Dynamic back support that follows the spine using 3D LiveBack® technology.
• Full 360° arm movement to support multi-device workflows and reduce neck strain.
• Intuitive manual adjustments for seat height, seat depth, recline tension and angle stops.
• Optional integrated headrest and adjustable lumbar support for targeted comfort.

Designed for movement
Gesture coordinates the back, seat and arms so users can change posture frequently while retaining support. 3D LiveBack® mimics spinal motion to provide progressive support through the full recline range.

Designed for connection
The 360° arms allow the user to bring devices closer without compromising posture, supporting cross-device tasks and reducing forward-head strain often associated with phone and tablet use.

Designed for you
Gesture accommodates a broad range of body sizes and sitting styles. Arm width, seat depth and recline settings offer a precise fit for users who sit for extended periods and require adjustable ergonomics.
