Features:
- Life fits naturally into any work environment - behind the desk one moment, at the conference table the next. It changes character with fabrics and finishes available in a wide variety of options.
- Synchronized recline with auto-balanced tension — Life's 360 degree swivel uses body weight for resistance and recline, holding your sight line at a constant level for enhanced comfort and reduced back, neck and shoulder strain.
- Optional Magnetic Lumbar Support - attaches anywhere on the back of the chair for additional personalized support
- A "living" seat — designed to reduce pressure points, Life is fitted with integral forward flex for the perfect balance of dynamic movement and structural stability.
- Armrests serve as an extension of your body, with clean, trim and easily adjustable lines.
