Haworth Fern Task Desk Chair

Description

Details

The Fern task chair seems alive, in tune with your every movement. Grounded in extensive ergonomic research, Fern’s design puts the person at the center with ergonomic innovations that provide total back support, edgeless comfort, and free movement. The result is a next-generation sitting experience that is distinctively responsive to each person. Fern works with you, not against you so you can sit better, work better, and feel better in today’s changing workplace.

Comfort & Flexibility

Fern’s Wave Suspension™ system is the heart of the chair and the key to its back comfort and flexibility. From all appearances, the back looks simple. But inside is a high level of science, engineering, and innovation that enables Fern to work with you, not against you.

Sit Well

Fern accommodates the diverse working population with new levels of all-day comfort, regardless of size, posture, or work mode. Research-driven, Fern’s ergonomic innovations provide total back support and respond to your every movement.

Work Well

With Fern, more comfort means less distraction. As you move or change posture, Fern works with you, not against you, so you can stay focused on the tasks at hand. With no hard outer frame, Fern has a soft and pliable edge that won’t jar you or limit your movement.

Feel Well

Fern provides a comfortable, engaging sitting experience that creates good feelings, keeping you balanced and centered in your chair. Its approachable design is less machine, more human, with mechanics discreetly integrated into the warm, residential aesthetic.
