    LOCUS
A few days at a stand-up desk and you’ll never go back
The Locus Seat is a radical redesign of the traditional office chair. You don’t sit on it; you lean on it. By doing so, the body is continuously sup- ported in a relaxed, upright position.
The seat is designed to adjust to every move the user makes, while maintaining equilibrium between the back and core muscles. This way of sitting makes the body effortlessly active, increasing blood circula- tion, engaging and relaxing muscles at the same time.
As a result, the seat is reduces both the risk of “sitting disease” and the fatigue brought on by standing.
