Struere is an ergonomic office chair designed to create an improved sitting posture experience, with a functional and aesthetic design that helps minimize health risks when sitting for long periods of time. Its aesthetics are inspired by the architecture of Gaudí and the Trencadís technique applied in his works. It incorporates a synchronized movement system between backrest and seat that, thanks to a center of gravity calculation technology, allows the chair to follow the user's movements to provide continuous back support. In addition, it incorporates a micro-massage system in the seat using airbags that minimize the risks to blood circulation when sitting down.



Its backrest is a flexible and resistant system that has a structure made of polypropylene in which pentagonal tesserae made of 8Z Pellicle mesh are inserted, and which provide the essential breathability of this element of the chair. Its shape favors optimal and continuous support in the lower back. The tessellation of the backrest favors the support of the back and the balance of tensions that can interfere with muscular health.



The seat is designed in different layers to provide comfort and convenience when sitting, with an integrated micro-massage system using airbags to promote blood flow. It is adjustable in height and depth and is designed suspended and attached to the stem by means of four connections that provide stability and accompany

of the user's movement.



The Struere base is designed with an innovation in terms of the conventional shape for this type of product, inspired by the columns of the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona, it is structured in three spokes that arise from a central axis where the pneumatic cylinder is located, In turn, two of these spokes are subdivided to obtain the five necessary support points according to regulations.
