For people who work at a desk, it is very likely that the hours they spend sitting are at least a third of the day, which can cause negative consequences such as discomfort, pain, tiredness or fatigue, as well as injuries, sleep and vascular system disorders, among many other consequences.At Dunati we specialize in office and home office furniture,We want to guide you on the aspects and characteristics that you should consider when choosing theergonomic chaircorrect for you according to your desk, space and anatomy. Today working at home is no longer something exceptional, but rather a very common activity. HeHome OfficeIt began to be part of our lives in 2020, due to the confinement we faced due to Covid-19. Currently, it is still a reality, so today more than ever it is necessary to have an ergonomic and functional workspace.
What type of chair is best for a home office?
To work at home the short answer is the same as in the office: a desk chair with adjustable height, lumbar support and a backrest that accompanies movement. What changes is the context, not the body.
What is important to look at differently at home: that the size fits in a small space, that the tapestry can withstand being on display all day in a living room or bedroom, and that the wheels correspond to the floor you have, because the office wheels can mark the wood. And if the company buys the chairs for its team at home, it is advisable to standardize a model and ship it to each home.
What requirements must a desk chair meet?
Although we will delve into this aspect in greater depth later, the minimum that a chair for working should have is a padded seat that is adjustable in height, a backrest that supports and receives the back, armrests and wheels for small movements.
Why doesn't the same chair work for everyone?
We are convinced that there is no single model for everyone,desk chairsThey should not be standardized for various reasons; each person depending on the use they make of thechairand depending on your individual anatomy, you will need a different model. For example, there are medium and high backrests where this directly influences the height of a person. So, it is advisable to opt for adesk chairFully adjustable, capable of adapting to each person who needs to work a working day or study daily from home. Our chairs have been rigorously selected, mainly considering ergonomic aspects, but also versatility and functionality in the spaces where they will be immersed. If an apartment is small, we have small-sized chairs, their measurements are practical without sacrificing customization features. Likewise, if the place is large then different possibilities open up when choosing a chair. To more easily understand what aspects to consider and why each one is necessary, let's graph it as follows:
