Office swivel chair
for agile working
The invention of the future
has only just begun.
How a new work culture is changing everything.
Start-ups and young companies represent a new work culture based on flat
hierarchies and slimline structures. What matters most is the idea and its realisation.
Networking and digitalisation are accelerating this development and are enabling
new ways of working which were inconceivable in the past.
This is also reflected in the growing number of co-working spaces, that offer
exactly the flexibility and spontaneity that is demanded in the new work culture.
A culture in which everyone is equal and where complex coordinated meetings
have been replaced by spontaneous get-togethers.
Ideas are born where people work together.

Cooperation is
the name of the game.
Team work requires freedom of movement
There is just one thing more important than the idea itself: the team who turns it into a reality.
The key to success lies in productive cooperation – but how can that be promoted?
For example, by creating a working environment in which employees can reach their full potential.
This requires agile swivel chairs which encourage movement and
with a slim design which facilitates close cooperation, even when seated.
A spontaneous roll-over to the colleagues simplifies cooperation.

Agile, flexible, scalable.
A chair like a start-up.
Arrive, sit down, get going.
se:motion is a flexible swivel chair which is tailored to the needs
of this new work culture. It offers impressive freedom of movement
when seated – and enables users to move freely in the room.
As such, se:motion is the perfect choice for team-oriented, agile
working methods. It is also the product of a development process
which challenged and reconsidered conventional thinking.
Welcome to the do-it-culture.

Radical and disruptive,
just like the very best ideas.
Minimal design, maximum mobility.
Forget the frills, it's time to focus on what really matters:
introducing se:motion and its revolutionary concept which is evident
at the very first glance. se:motion combines dynamism with comfort
and has proven itself to be a valuable team player whatever the situation.
Ergonomics and agility– without adjustment.
The flowing shape of the seat rocker, which combines the backrest and seat area,
makes se:motion a truly agile companion. The clou: Given its innovative geometry,
se:motion adapts automatically to the user to guarantee an ideal posture and
effortless mobility straight away.

Simply move freely – in all work situations.
The revolutionary design and the generous opening angle of 23degrees enable
relaxed sitting, an upright posture and concentrated working. The seat adapts to
the movements in the respective work situation and supports the user even when
leaning forward with an inclination of up to 5 degrees.

facilitates uncomplicated interaction.
A quick glance over a colleague's shoulder, a rapid brainstorming session?
Simply roll on over. Thanks to its flexibility and streamline shape, se:motion is ideal
for spontaneous meetings while seated. Whether meeting or project rooms, co-working
zones or work in pairs at a bench, se:motion encourages flexible collaboration.
Working in pairs.

The streamline design and maximum
mobility of se:motion means working in pairs

Design with added value.
Whether in black or light grey, se:motion emits a sense of dynamic lightness.
Moreover, the style is far more than a mere design statement. The perforated backrest
not only sets visual accents, but also ensures elasticity and maximum sitting comfort.
The same applies for the ideally positioned lumbar curve and the ergonomically
designed seat with slim edges– the impressive looking design ensures both
a good posture and mobility.
High contrast.
The frame and the base are made of synthetic
material and are available in black and light grey.

Outstanding for people
and the environment.
In its over 145-year-long history, sustainability has always played a central role
at Sedus, even if this term didn't even exist back then. The responsible use
of resources and respect and appreciation of our employees has been an integral
part of Sedus right from the start. Corporate responsibility also means to develop
and produce high-quality products which result in tangible benefits. Products
which help people and bring joy to their lives. Some of our chairs and desks have
been in use by our customers for decades, which is perhaps the greatest
kind of sustainability.
se:motion also reflects these values. Even during the development phase,
the focus was clearly on customer benefits and the environmental footprint.
And this is truly outstanding. For example, thanks to a special plastic compound
which is particularly easy to recycle. Or by the practical changeable upholstery
for the backrest and seat which can be easily cleaned or replaced if soiled.
The result is not just maximum flexibility, but also a great feeling.
