Developed by legendary designer Niels Diffrient, the Liberty Side chair offers beautiful styling and uncompromising comfort for side chair applications.
Featuring Humanscale’s revolutionary Form-Sensing Mesh Technology, the Liberty collection boasts tri-panel backrest construction using non-stretch mesh to provide body-fitting comfort and lumbar support without manual adjustments or exterior devices. The Liberty Side chair offers a mesh seat with a frameless front edge for added comfort, while the pivoting backrest allows for a gentle recline and self-adjusting support. Liberty’s frame is available in black, silver or polished aluminum.
In addition to earning numerous awards, the Liberty collection and selections from the Luminesce mesh line are currently featured in Design Life Now: National Design Triennial 2006, an exhibition at the Smithsonian’s Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum, in New York City, featuring the most noteworthy design innovations from 2003 through 2006.
