Designing a modern school chair
In a continued effort to improve furniture in education Origin looked to university leaning spaces as a relatively new market to approach. An initial review revealed that the industry was in rapid development with students fees quadrupling, universities were finding it ever more challenging to attract students to their courses. One area that universities were focusing on improving were the interiors of learning spaces, transforming them into more inviting spaces for the students.
Origin designed FLUX with modern university students in mind, providing them with a chair that didn’t look or feel like a typical classroom chair. Over the past 60 years ‘poly’ style school chairs have focussed mostly on producing cheaper iterations of the last, sacrificing other important aspects of the chair. Contrary to this trend FLUX has been designed to progress the aesthetic and functional role of the classroom chair making it a perfect fit for modern learning and working spaces.
