Abstract (en)

An office-type chair including a base (12), a height-adjustable pedestal (14) that projects generally vertically upward, and a seat-back arrangement (16) including a seat assembly (18) and a back assembly (20). The seat assembly includes a seat surface (22) and a flange (24) extending from a forward edge of the seat surface at an angle relative to the seat surface. The seat assembly is adapted to pivot between a first generally horizontal position and a second generally vertical position. In the first position the seat surface is generally horizontal and functions as a task chair, and in the second position the seat surface is generally vertical and the flange functions as a perch. The armrests (74) are also pivotable between first and second positions for use in both task chair and perch configurations.
