Design With Purpose

COMPLETE SUPPORTIn the studio of Ceres designer Wolfgang Deisig, every

new concept begins with a question: What can be improved?

With Ceres, Deisig set out to improve the back support

delivered by work chairs. He conducted motion studies of

how people sit and revealed a gap in support as they recline.

The kinesthetic design of Ceres addresses this problem,

keeping the backrest in constant contact with your lumbar

as you sit upright, recline, or move between postures.

CLOSING THE GAP

Ceres is uniquely engineered to support the

natural way your body moves.

STANDARD SUPPORT UPRIGHT

When sitting upright in a standard ofce chair,

you may feel a separation between your upper

back and the backrest.

CERES SUPPORT UPRIGHT

Sitting upright in a Ceres work chair, youll feel the

backrest supporting you from the shoulders down

to the lumbar.

STANDARD SUPPORT RECLINED

As you recline in a standard ofce chair, the

backrest pulls away from you, creating a gap

in lumbar support.

CERES SUPPORT RECLINED

The synchronized tilt of the Ceres work chair

mimics the motion of your body as you recline

to provide total support with no lumbar gap.

SIMPLE, INTUITIVE USER ADJUSTMENTS

SEAT HEIGHT

Seat height adjusts by lifting a lever

conveniently placed on the right-hand

edge of the seat.

TILT TENSION

Moving a slider a span of less than

2 inches along the right-hand seat edge

accesses the full range of tilt tension.

TILT LOCK

A switch on the left-hand edge of the seat

locks the chair in one of three tilt positions.

SEAT DEPTH

The seat glides forward or back when a

lever along the left-hand edge of the seat

is lifted.

ARM HEIGHT AND DEPTH

Press a button beneath the arms to raise

or lower them. Push armpads to slide them

forward or back.

ARM WIDTH

With arms forward, armpads arc in about

5.5 degrees and out about 4.5 degrees.

COMPLETE CONTROLSeating is personal. At the same time, its also universal. Thats why

Ceres makes it easy for everyone in the workplace to take control

of their own superior sitting experience. Ceres accommodates most

workplace applications, and all users from the 5th to 95th percentile.

User adjustments are immediately responsive and fully integrated

into the seat, putting personalization within easy reach.

MORE THAN MEETS THE EYEDesign thats built around function has a natural appeal. Theres

nothing extra, nothing added. Every design detail serves the

same purpose: to add to the awless functionality of the whole.

With Ceres, the distinctive lines of the work chair echo the

motion of your body as you sit and recline. Even the stackable,

coordinating multi-purpose chair encourages movement with its

unique articulating backrest.

bring to itso bring it on! Specify the fabrics and nishes that

express your personality or enhance your brand. Go for fully

upholstered backs for a classic look. Add an ilira-stretch M4 mesh

back to push the style forwardeither a little or a lot, depending

on your color choices. Choose from basic Black, neutral standards
