Summa

Description:
The Summa chair was created to satisfy the need for a high-specification board room chair. Requested by a number of interior architecture firms for projects that require product made form classy materials yet still embodying Humanscale's seating dynamic principles, the Summa chair has an exclusive counter-balance mechanism. It was designed to be completely integrated into the form factor of the chair, while supporting the users body in the same intuitive manner - no lever and no adjustment required. The structural integrity of the chair could be provided by either a high-gloss composite shell, a 3D molded wood veneer shell or a fully upholstered back.
