Sedia Systems’ Turner Tilts

Try walking behind occupied (or even unoccupied) chairs. It’s difficult enough when they’re on wheels and the occupant can slide forward — but with fixed seating? Turner, designed by Lamm for Sedia Systems, maximizes space behind each seat for row easement access, solving this common design (and user) problem. A multi-pivotal base swivels and tilts, enabling the pedestal mounted seat to tip forward so people can pass behind. Swivel to sit, tilt to pass behind.

“Powder-coated 11 gauge metal components with ergonomically designed monolith seats”… I might consider going back to college for these. In straight rows on tiered or flat floors, the chairs are meant to be used in combination with Sedia System’s multi-purpose tables: a 12-inch continuous writing surface with an integrated wire management system. Not only are they far more comfortable than what I sat in at school, but they actually make it possible to escape to the bathroom or grab a drink without disrupting an entire lecture.
