Rest Chair, JCB Toughphone and Metal Kama

WORK

Fill your seat
We’ve reserved the best for you. If you said “it looks weird” under your breath, we agree. At first glance, this Herman Miller will not lure you to place your rear in it. But don’t go judging it yet. Inspired by the Golden Gate Bridge and designed by Yves Béhar, the Sayl’s Y-shaped back, mesh and 3D Intelligent Suspension back work on the same principle as a suspension bridge. This not only means that it can take the load of a large posterior with the ease of a pro-weightlifter, it will also ensure unparalleled comfort. Rest assured, the only grimace on your face will be that from excessive workload, not back pain.

Talking tough
Three years after its launch the JCB Toughphone Pro-Talk TP851 is back. The phone is tougher than ever, with a higher resistance to water and dust and improved shock resistance, while the design is still modelled on the company’s range of diggers. The TP851 is the top of a new range of four JCB phones. Not only do they look sturdy, they can survive  temperatures between -30o Celsius and 75o Celsius, being dropped from a height of 2 metres on all four corners and you sitting on it.
