JORIS LAARMAN STUDIO: Bone Chair
Finally a decent photo of the Bone Chair from the site of the Rotterdam based designer himself…although the site is now under construction. I do hope he forfeits Flash in his new site.

Doctor Riter’s ErgoChair
Doctor Riter's ErgoChair
SKU ABB100000
A new and exciting ergonomic chair designed by a group of physicians, health practitioners and engineers in Switzerland to promote correct posture, to help strengthen the muscles in the abdominal area and the spine, and to take stress off the back and neck.
The egg-shaped ball of the ErgoChair does not compress discs in the spine, like a regular chair.
Most people who sit in front of a computer or at a desk for prolonged periods of time assume poor posture. It results in flattening of the lumbar spine and altered head carriage. This can result in chronic lower back pain, weak abdominal muscles, and neck problems that often lead to headaches. Prolonged sitting can also cause poor circulation in the legs resulting in painful leg cramps or the sensation of the legs falling asleep.
The ErgoChair enables individuals to achieve proper posture. The egg-shaped flexible ball allows free movement of the body – up and down, back and forth, and side to side – for the body to find the best posture to relieve and prevent back pain.
