Swing Ao
Most conventional chairs are designed based on the idea that sitting is a static state, even though the human body is designed to move. Swing Ao has a tension structure that allows the seat to move freely in conjunction with the movement of the sitter's pelvis. This promotes a feeling of floating and the movement of the pelvis, spine, and surrounding muscles, activating the body's functions just like playing on a small swing. Additionally, it can be used as a stationary stool with an 8-degree angled seat surface to maintain a healthy posture with an elongated spine.

Consentable WT Ao
The lifestyles have changed with various digital devises. But the designs of desks have not changed. The modern intellectuals' work desks are usually flooded with various types of wirings when they place PCs. They should need to be improved. Especially in the era when Work From Home is common, the work desks at home need to be sophisticated. Consentable WT Ao provides new work experience for PC user with hiding noisy wirings and devices into the simple form, and with the indigo dyed top plate that resemble the sea surface.
