The history of the open angle sitting is derived from CHINESE TRADITION:
.. “In Buddhist tradition a bench or a pillow is often used to create a kneeling-like position that can be maintained for extended periods of Zen meditation discipline. The weight of the torso is lifted off the ankles and the forward tilting seat opens up the angle between trunk and thighs, putting the back into its natural S-shaped alignment." ... Three Norwegian designers Oddvin Rykken, Peter Opsvik and Prof. Svein Gusrud developed chairs based on this principle. This way of sitting became known in countries all over the world. One chair in particular sold in high volumes in Europe, USA and Japan; the Balans Variable, designed by Opsvik. See also HAG capisco chair, which is developed for dynamic office use.

A good posture keeps the skeletal structure balanced and aligned; we manage the force of gravity running through the body by aligning the bones, rather than holding the muscles in a rigid pose.

Beside the healthy upright sitting position, there are much more advantages using saddle-like WEY-chairs. Used together with height adjustable desks, they significantly can increase collaboration and communication in an office. Foster teamwork and emotional qualities within a corporate culture. Additionally enhance the dynamics within an office, while people stand-up more easily and frequently.
This is achieved by lifting all office desk's heights to a higher level, which is closer to a stand-up position.

The first Kohlbecker building was called „The Human Factory“. Because Karl Kohlbecker wanted to ensure that a good quality of life does not end at the factory gates. That‘s a kind thought. And an entrepreneurial one: because when people feel comfortable, everything runs better. Quality increases, processes become faster, the work succeeds.
No compromises have been made in the equipment of each individual desk workstation. All components are individually adaptable to humans. Due to the special geometry of the desk, very advantageous workplace groupings result. The offset of the tables to each other is very pleasant. Direct counterparts are avoided. Instead, harmoniously spacious rooms are created between the desks.
Ein vielseitiges Produkt in handlichem Format für viele Anwendungen in Privat- und Gewerberäumen.
Das handliche Format von 1200x600mm macht es einfach, damit z.B. Wände zu tapezieren, oder eine Verkleidung auf Lattung oder auf anderen nicht dekorativen Dämmplatten zu montieren. Jede Fliesenplatte ist rundum mit einer Fase versehen. so dass kleinere Unebenheiten und Toleranzen beim Ansetzten von Platten aufgefangen werden und damit nicht sichtbar sind.
Ein Wechsel von horizontal und vertikal verlegten Fliesenplatten ergibt schon ein erstes interessantes Muster. Weitere interessante nahtlos und endlos Texturen ergänzen die Designvariation, die zusätzlich zu den 19 verschiedenen kombinierbaren Farben eine Vielzahl an individuellen Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten ermöglicht.
Ein weiterer Vorteil ist, dass wir Ihnen schnell und kostengünstig Ihre Fliesenplatten per Paketdienst zusenden können. Für Fachhandelspartner mit Ausstellung bedeutet dies auch einfache und praktische kleine Vorratslagerung am POS.
A remarkable acoustic optimized school project. Through professional consultation by Delhom acoustique the classrooms and corridors have large sound absorbing surfaces. Besides the ceiling, at least 1 wall was made with vitAcoustic wall absorbers.
Nicely integrated in the overall bamboo design by gmp · International GmbH (Architekten von Gerkan, Marg und Partner).
The target was, that the kids can calm down and concentrate better in a quite and sound optimized acoustic environment. Whoever will visit this school will hear the difference and will want to sit down for a while and relax.
This project has been a challenge for our teams, because of the very very short delivery time for 3 floors, 30x classrooms with corridor and classroom inbuilt furniture, receptions desks, library, kitchen furniture, water dispenser, acoustic flower pots in PAC and much more.
Highly sorbent, flexible vitAcoustic sound absorbers as blinds for roller shutter cabinets cost-effectively transform barriers into highly effective broadband absorbers. Following the principle of microperforation, the textile vitAcoustic panels combined with a cavity (cabinet interior) develop a nearly linear broadband absorption, especially in language-relevant areas. The vitAcoustic roller shutters, which are available in up to 50 colors, are generally cheaper than comparable PVC shutters.
Each conference room is a representation of distinctive style and vision utilizing systems from the Circon Executive Product Line. Size, form and material/composition are developed according to individual customer needs and demands.
Various table styles are possible. Elliptical, Oval and Boat-form with elliptical feet sections can be realized in chrome, aluriffel or painted. All table sizes are feasible. The Oval-Office Project in Hamburg is a successful example where an oval 11,6 m- long table veneered in Swiss pear tree was designed to accomodate 38 persons in their executive suite conference room.
Fragrant real hay, hay flowers and mosses applied directly to vitAcoustic absorber plates. Another versatile way of experiencing real natural products with all senses (seeing, touching, smelling). The special patented preservation and coating method opens up completely new design options. And the vitAcoustic natural-coated absorber plates can be used in all vitAcoustic applications, such as 3d frames, acoustic roller shutter cabinets, panel curtains for room division and flexible partitions and partitions. Made to measure: natural elements transparent or semi-transparent on colored vitAcoustic absorber plates. Design your individual acoustic nature picture with the 19 vitAcoustic colors and real hay, hay flowers and moss. You can choose between opaque and transparent. For projects, we also offer individual adjustments, eg semi-transparent. Very individual ideas can be implemented by coating the panels with various genuine natural materials such as hay, hay flowers and moss.
