Freedom Headrest Black Fabric

The Freedom Chair with Headrest from Humanscale is without a doubt the most iconic Humanscale chairs, and one of the most recognised office task chairs of all time. The leather version with polished aluminium accents is the most elite version of this great looking and comfortable chair. 

Described by the New York Times as "the gold standard in office seating", the freedom chair has redesigned and brought a new way of thinking to understanding of office seating. 

Self-Adjusting Recline - Weight Sensitive and Self Locking

Like most of his chairs designed for Humanscale, Neils Diffrient wanted to design a chair that automatically adapts to the user without the use of levers, tensioning knobs and other controls that are often never utilised. He achieved this through an innovative recline feature that automatically recognises individual body weights and adjusts its own recline function accordingly, creating a truly active based office chair that caters to postural variance throughout the day. In addition to this, the backrest also pivots according to body weight to furthermore increase movement throughout the day.

Contoured Seat and Backrest

The contours of the seat and backrest are designed to follow the natural form of the body, in turn reducing pressure points and promoting even weight distribution. 

Articulating Headrest

Not only does the backrest pivot but the headrest also articulates, it moves with the user so they don't have to make manual adjusts to find comfort. 

Synchronous Armrests 

Unlike other task chairs, the Freedom's armrests are attached to the backrest, catering for continue support during recline. 

A True Design Icon

The Freedom chair proves that ergonomics can be beautiful. Its distinctive, timeless design enhances any space.

The Freedom Chair and The Environment

Like all Humanscale products, the Freedom chair is designed with its environmental impact in mind. Humanscale believe that the best design achieves more with less, and sustainability is the natural result of this focus. 28% post-consumer recyclability, 18% pre-consumer. Its modular design also makes it easy to replace parts over the chair’s lifetime. Rather than getting rid of the chair entirely and getting something new.
