everything flexes

Every part of cobi was designed to flex and adjust to your body.

The cobi chair is one model of Steelcase's new collaborative seating.
It was designed specifically to foster collaboration and was based on 3 key insights.
a. Chairs should promote movement and be comfortable for long periods of time.
b. Adjustments should be automatic and inituitive.
c. Chairs should support multiple postures.

The cobi chair encourages movement and supports a variety of postures.
With only one adjustment (seat height), it has a weight activated mechanism which senses and supports your own center of gravity.

1. Flexing top edge

Allows users to rest their arm on top of the chair and supporting a variety of postures.

2. Flexing Back

Provides comfort and support while contouring to any posture the body needs.

3. Flexing Seat

Encourages users to move and shift, allowing users to sit centered or off to the sides.

4. Weight-activated mechanism

Sensing your center of gravity, it adjusts to the position that will put the least amount of stress on your body, while still keeping you properly oriented and supported.

5. Seat Height

Accomodates different heights and leg lengths. To raise chair, lift body weight up and oull lever up. To lower chair, remain seated and pull lever up.
