Word has it that Nightingale’s MXO was born of the idea that a chair should automatically return to its original height—“to maintain a clean, organized boardroom look.” No wonder the chair has the slim, sleek appearance of a fine-tuned sports car.

With the same speedy aptitude as the Porsche 918 Spyder (0 to 60 in 2.2 seconds), MXO returns to its default position with the merest pressure upon its cool gas lift mechanism.

This is a nifty feature that keeps MXO’s environs looking well ordered and clean, but it’s hardly the chair’s only calling card.

Recent winner of the Green GOOD DESIGN Award for “sustainability and environmentally conscious composition,” MXO sports great green credentials, including 92% recyclable and 83% recycled content. The chair is also manufactured in a waste-free, wind- and solar-powered facility.

Lest we forget it’s a superb performer: MXO offers ergonomic features like swivel tilt, waterfall seat design, ENERSORB foam, and dual-layer Mystic fabric. A range of caster and upholstery options are available, as is a polished aluminum base.

Nightingale also received GOOD DESIGN accolades for their LXO and WXO chairs.
