Tip Ton: New chair offers an ergonomic tilt

The chair’s name, Tip Ton, hints at the dual functionality of this minimally styled, stackable chair. A 6.5-degree tilt, created by the chair’s floor skids, allows two sitting positions – resting and forward-leaning.

The forward tilt is designed to straighten the pelvis and spine, and improve blood flow. ‘We realised that creating dynamic movement in a chair can help a person’s concentration because it increases oxygen flow around the body,’ says Jay Osgerby. Tip Ton is made from 100% recyclable polypropylene, weighs 4.5kg and requires no maintenance.
