About giroflex 150

Developing giroflex 150

To develop the concept for the giroflex 150, BIG-GAME turned to the brand’s archives for inspiration, looking back over hundreds of wooden office-chair designs, dating back to the turn of the 20th century. Giroflex has a strong heritage in wooden chairs, having been founded first as a maker of bentwood furniture, before pivoting into workplace seating with the rise of office culture at the beginning of the 20th century.

Instead, the properties of the materials and the sophistication of Giroflex’s engineering allow the chair to naturally adapt to the weight of the sitter, and to dynamically respond to their movements.
