Social®

A dining chair, and so much more

Social® is a versatile shell chair that effortlessly adapts to different spaces in your home. Whether around the dining table, in your home office, or anywhere you spend time in front of a table, its unique features are designed to move with you, providing support and ease for everyday activities. Available with a tilting or swivel base, it adapts to your needs, inviting movement in its own subtle way. Made from post-consumer polypropylene, its smooth, durable surface is easy to clean - ready for everyday life.

Tilt or turn

Choose between two bases with different functions: tilt or turn. With its curved base, Social® Tilt lets you gently lean forward for added focus or lean back to relax and reflect. Social® Turn, with its 360-degree swivel base and four legs, allows you to move intuitively and interact comfortably, whether around the table or shifting between tasks.

Customize to your wants

Designed to be highly customizable, so you can make it your own. Choose from six distinct colors and add comfort with seat cushions or a soft jacket for extra coziness.

Made in Italy from post-consumer recycled polypropylene, Social® is crafted using European household waste, discarded plastic film, and other materials. Assembled without glue, it can be easily disassembled for future recycling. Independent Environmental Product Declarations confirm that Social® has a smaller environmental footprint compared to similar chairs.

Social® Turn

A chair with a twist

Social® Turn might look like any other traditional chair on four legs, but there is more to the chair than first meets the eye. The base features a swivel component, which makes the seat seamlessly follow your movements allowing for smoother interactions around the table.

With its uniquely curved base, Social® Tilt allows you to tilt gently forward for extra focus and lean back when you wish to relax or reflect. The multi-functional shell chair is ideal when working or carrying out other focus-related activities at the dining table. Social® Tilt is UV-resistant and can even be used outdoors.
