Be creative with your meeting room seating
July 24th, 2008 | by James Welch
Izzy have created the perfect meeting room chair, they say.
Having recently won a prestigious award at NeoCon World Trade Fair, the Sideways chair is expected to feature in more and more meeting and conference rooms over the next few years.
The chair is seen as a forerunner of the change in meeting room behaviour. There is a strong message coming from the office space arena that more collaborative methods are needed to bring the meeting in to the new century.
Existing meeting methods are felt outdated and new ideas, such as telepresence suites and chairs such as the one designed by Izzy are seen as ways to update the meeting room.
It would be nice to see some of these chairs in action at meeting rooms all over the world. Will Regus take it up and others follow? If you are a serviced office provider already using the Sideways Chair, please contact us.
