Diffrient World is Humanscale's first foray into all-mesh task seating. Designer Niels Diffrient wanted to create the most minimal, full-function task chair ever made. With an innovative tri-panel mesh backrest that provides custom back and lumbar support and a lightweight design, Diffrient World is, like all of Humanscale's products, simple, beautiful and functional.
- Uses the laws of physics and harnesses the user's body weight to automatically provide the right amount of recline for every individual, every time
- Its groundbreaking mechanism-free recline action leverages two parts of the chair's frame to provide automatic, balanced support throughout the full range of motion for maximum support
- Form Sensing Mesh Technology - the backrest perfectly conforms to the sitter's entire back as if custom made for them.
- To maximize comfort, Diffrient eliminated the front edge of the chair, solving a perennial problem of hard edges placing pressure on the knees and contact stress behind the thighs, allowing long-term comfort and total supports for every sitter
- A truly lightweight chair, Diffrient World replaces the standard cushion seat with a low-abrasion, non-stretch mesh
- Legendary designer Niels Diffrient's focus on simplicity led to the patented gravity mechanism found in World. It uses physics and the sitter's own body weight to provide optimized and automatic support without complex adjustments, so you can move effortlessly from position to position without operating manual knobs and levers.
- Inspired by clothing design and combined with low stretch mesh, World's mesh backrest ensures a personalized fit and maximum adaptability. Unlike traditional single-paneled mesh chairs, our tri-paneled Form Sensing Mesh takes on the exact shape of the sitter's back, as if it were made for them. Perfect for dynamic workspaces, World promotes balanced movement for enhanced comfort throughout the day.
- No matter where you work, World offers personalized ergonomic support, with the flexibility to match any style or need. Choose the breathable ease of an all-mesh design for tailored support and a sleek aesthetic-or opt for a sculpted, high-density foam seat for firmer cushioning, upholstered in your choice of material for maximum versatility.
- While the average task chair uses 200+ components, World is built with just 78. That simplicity reduces the need for ongoing maintenance and repairs, extending it's already long life.
- World’s testing surpasses industry standards, greatly exceeding the limits of most other chairs. This makes for long-lasting comfort across years of heavy use.
