Multi™

Peter Opsvik, 1981

Multi™ is a funky chair that pushes the boundaries of conventional furniture pieces. It offers a cool sitting alternative intended not only for the workspace, but anywhere you might want to take a seat without your back protesting.

A cool sitting alternative

Thanks to its wood knobs, the seat can be positioned at four different angles. When in the very highest position, Multi™ allows for a steep sitting posture which is almost as easy on the back as standing. Pull towards or push away from the tabletop when sitting down or getting up and Multi™ will follow.
