Silver

By Jessica Grafton



Another task chair you may have seen on TV, but in a very different way, is the new Kimball / Interstuhl Silver chair. This chair was used in the new Star Trek movie, and with its space-age aesthetic it’s not hard to see why.

Obviously this chair is not for just any office. Its design sets it apart from most and puts it in a genre of elite. I myself thought it was hideous when I first saw it, but Kimball Office does a very good job of putting it in the right context. Needless to say it’s unique, and I wouldn’t snuff at it given the opportunity to use it one of my designs.

As described by Kimball Office:

“Designed by renowned European architect and designer Hadi Teherani, the Silver line of chairs possesses a design as sensual and emotional as it is simple and formal. It is a work of art. Each piece is shaped by an elegant aluminum or hardwood shell, creating a form that is impressive, yet inviting. And precisely detailed upholstered surfaces are as beautiful as they are powerful. The true joy of Silver is in the sitting. The handcrafted seat and backrest cradle every curve and joint, creating unrivaled comfort. And Silver is equipped with patented synchronous movement technology, assuring optimum support in every position. Silver must be experienced to be understood. But once you know its embrace, you will want it in your life for all time.”

Really makes you want to sit in one, doesn’t it?
