Offices the world over will rejoice at the prospect of a new multi-purpose chair from the mind of iconic designer Niels Diffrient. The American designer-who died in 2013-was known for his minimalist, ergonomic approach to seating, an ethos evident in many of the pieces he designed for Humanscale, including recent feats like the Liberty, Smart, and Diffrient World chairs.

A Comfortable, Stackable Chair for Any Occasion

"Functional, minimal, and stable," Humanscale’s Diffrient Occasional sports a patented form-sensing mesh, meaning the chair achieves personalized ergonomic precision (read: it's comfortable on your back regardless of your body type) without the proverbial bell and whistle of additional lumbar support.

The chair is stackable too, accommodating up to five in a compact configuration that leaves them readily available for use.

Offered in a variety of finishes, Diffrient Occasional will be available to consumers in Mid-November. Contact Humanscale for further information.
