Who Is It For?
Suitable for users who:
- work at drafting-height desks or elevated benches
- use height-adjustable sit-stand workstations
- want an elevated alternative to a conventional task chair
- regularly move between sitting, high sitting, perching and standing
- prefer an active rather than fixed sitting style
- undertake technical, creative, collaborative or task-based work
- want the fully upholstered comfort of the Capisco 8106 at greater working height
Problem to Solve
A conventional office chair is designed primarily around standard desk height.
At an elevated work surface, simply raising a standard chair can leave the user outside its intended adjustment range and may provide inadequate support for higher working positions.
The Capisco 8106 Drafting uses the 265 mm tall lift specifically intended for high desk positions, extending the chair's working range while retaining the distinctive Capisco seat, adjustable depth, back height and balanced movement.
Its saddle-inspired geometry also allows the user to adopt several different orientations rather than remaining in one conventional forward-facing posture.
The objective is not simply to sit higher.
It is to create a chair that supports movement across a wider range of working heights.
S E A T™ — Primary
Support · Elevation · Angles · Tilt
The Capisco 8106 Drafting supports S E A T™ through:
- saddle-style pelvic support
- elevated seat-height adjustment
- adjustable seat depth
- adjustable backrest height
- HÅG inBalance® balanced movement
- adjustable backward tilt tension
- lockable seat movement
- freedom to change sitting orientation
The 8106 retains its adjustable seat depth and back height across the drafting configuration, allowing the chair to be fitted to the individual rather than relying on height adjustment alone.
S P A S™ — Primary
Sit · Perch · Active · Stand
This is where the drafting-height Capisco particularly excels.
The tall lift expands the working range to support transitions between:
Sit → Elevated Sit → Perch → Active → Stand
rather than treating sitting and standing as two separate workstation states.
A footring can also be specified where additional foot support is required at elevated positions.
