Classic Conference
QiVi is an ergonomic chair with a pivoting backrest that follows the natural motion of a back as it reclines. Its gliding seat moves with the body, encouraging multiple postures.
Various Options
The QiVi chair range includes a five-star base chair or stool for a conventional conference environment, and a sled base option for a more sophisticated guest experience.
Refined Connection
People don’t just sit in meetings. They interact, brainstorm, and create. QiVi’s intelligent design encourages collaboration, supports natural posture change, and provides comfort for extended periods.
