The Time Chair, designed by Henrik Tengler in 2012, is a dynamic and comfortable conference chair.

The chair features an innovative steel construction that balances aesthetics and strength while maintaining a minimalist appearance. Its ergonomic design ensures a comfortable and supportive seating experience throughout the day.

To the naked eye, the Time Chair may appear simple and minimalist in its appearance. However, behind its simplicity lies a design that pushes the boundaries of how a chair can be composed. The chair was designed in 2012 and is characterized by Henrik Tengler’s focus on functionality and his innovative approach to working with materials. The chair’s frame has been reduced to the bare minimum and challenges the limits of what the material can support. The wire in the frame is made from specially crafted steel, ensuring the chair’s durability and strength, thereby allowing it to maintain its functional and aesthetic expression.
