Lecture rooms change use three times a day, and the writing surface is what usually gets in the way. The Link design chair by Fornasarig, designed by Luca Fornasarig, takes a folding writing tablet that is easy to fit, sized for a laptop or a tablet, and folds away when the room turns into a discussion.
It is the detail that makes one chair serve a seminar, a board meeting and a training day. Around it the same family covers educational chairs, teaching tables (Link Edu Desk) and meeting and conference chairs, with a linking system and a trolley for when the room has to be cleared.
The chair itself is steel and new-generation polyolefin resin, fully recyclable, with a wide seat and back and six colour variants.
Tell La Mercanti how the room is used through the day and we will come back with a checked parts list, agreed with Fornasarig.
