Humanscale Picks Up A Prestigious Red Dot Award For The Diffrient World Chair
Humanscale has won a coveted Red Dot award for its Diffrient World Chair as the Best of the Best in the Office Furniture category, awarded to a single product in a broad product class this is a great achievement.
It is almost exclusively self adjusting and apart from setting the height users can leave it all up to the chair to work out the most comfortable and supportive position to place you in.
All this has been achieved by using just 8 major components with the chair actually functioning without a mechanism and incorporating form-sensing mesh upholstery for perfect back and lumbar support removing the need for manually adjustable components.
The only downside is the chair still isn’t officially launched and doesn’t look like appearing until early summer 2010.
However, Diffrient World is only one of Humanscale’s award winning chairs and the good news it is running a promotion on all its products offering an additional 15% saving on current prices.

Read that this chair is a good chair for those seeking a good chair as far as that goes but it won’t offer the right support for someone who is say looking for a chair to help alleviate low back problems aggravated by sitting….is this correct please? Also, is this the chair seen at CTU in the latest series of 24? (Thought I’d ask) Thank you
It’s difficult to know how effective the Diffrient World will be for lower back problems until it’s available and can be tested. If you have a lot of trouble with your lower back it would definitely be best to try one out if possible.
The chair on CTU looks like it’s the Humanscale Freedom which I find gives me good lower back support and yet chairs are very personal so it may not be the same for everyone.

I have just come across this site, and finding it interesting and informative.
Wow that is a great achievement, that is some funky chair, in a world were most of us sit behind a PC all day, one really has to be comfortable in what they are sitting in, and a chair really has to be supportive of ones back, so know that this chair conforms to all this is good to know.
Interesting site, looking forward to browsing through the posts
Kind regards
