The starting point for the development of the Limbic Chair, which was driven centrally by research by the physician Dr. Patrik Künzler, was not, as is so often the case, ergonomic considerations, but desirable mental or physical conditions – such as weightlessness, concentration, enjoyment, relaxation etc. The interplay between posture and exercise on the one hand and our mental and emotional health on the other hand was investigated. Derived from this, it was a matter of how a sitting instrument would have to be created for it to generate positive impulses for our mental or emotional well-being. Basic technology for furniture emanated from many experiments and technical studies, which were intended to enable healthy, enjoyable and even useful sitting. The Limbic Chair is the initial implementation on the basis of this technology. Its name hints at the “Limbic system”. The medical term describes a functional unit in the brain, which includes several anatomical structures and plays a central role in processing emotional and intellectual impulses.
