Ergonomics

Posted on February 7, 2011 by Nancy

Ergonomics is the design of office furniture to prevent strain related injuries. Such injuries in the long-term can lead to disabilities. There are various models of office chairs that have been designed to provide comfort to those working.

The designs of these chairs ensure that the correct sitting posture is maintained and less weight is given to the spinal cord, and more pressure on to the seating area. There are chairs that come with mesh back, so that there is flow of air at the back and this helps preventing sweating while sitting down on the office chairs.

A person who has a desk job on a computer has to spend quite a lot of time sitting down and does not necessarily have sufficient exercise thus the stress / pressure given to the back will be quite high. Thus having an ergonomic chair will help the person relax even though having to sit in the same place for quite some time.

Is it two or is it one?

Posted on February 6, 2011 by Nancy

If somebody mentions to me benches, the image that immediately comes to my mind is the benches that are available in Kindergarten and prep schools where children are provided with benches to sit on.

Well how would it be if you had a bench that could convert itself to two chairs. Well thats just what these guys have done. They have gone ahead and made detachable benches. When it is a bench, you can sleep on it, or put it in your garden to have a relaxing moment with your loved one, if you have guests visiting you, this can provide you with that extra furniture to allow that person to sit.

You can arrange the individual chairs in such a way that you can give a coarse look on the edges or you can give a smooth edge finish. This is indeed a very creative and a well thought out idea.

Bamboo Chairs

Posted on February 4, 2011 by Nancy

Bamboo chairs come in a variety of shapes and sizes. They are really comfortable to sit on and good for the body. These chairs provide good support for the body parts that are curved. The design of most bamboo chairs are such that they have flexibility on the back and the right amount of stiffness required for the body to be seated comfortably.

They provide good ventilation for the body when seated unlike most of the modern chairs/sofas that do not have any ventilation spots. Thus making it difficult. One can most often feel a sweaty patch on the back after being seated on a sofa for a prolonged duration. The Bamboo is actually a grass and thus biodegradable. If the chair is broken, it can be thrown out without any worries about the impact it might cause to the environment. The bamboo chairs are designed to have arm rest and sometimes foot rest.

It has been scientifically found by scientists in University of Leeds in the United Kingdom that the neck muscles have a link to the way that the brain cells function. Bad posture can often hurt the neck muscles, thus resulting in blood pressure because of the damage to the neck muscles.

Bean Bag Chairs: You Know You Love ‘Em

Posted on August 24, 2010 by JessicaG

When my boyfriend and I were brainstorming on new furniture options for our tiny, tiny living room, we couldn’t agree on much.

But one thing that was a unanimous YES!, was a bean bag chair. Two to be exact. We both had bean bag chairs in our rooms growing up, and remember them fondly. I had a bright yellow one and loved curling up like a cat and taking a snooze on it when I probably should have been doing my homework. He and his brother had two, and they became their Nintendo chairs: two amorphous blobs that molded to their shapes after hours of stationery game-play. Beanbag chairs may seem like a corny relic of the ’70s and ’80s, but with online stores like LoveSac.com and BeanbagChairOutlet.com, the once outdated design gets a new, cooler, lease on life.

I can’t wait to sink into my new bean bag chair with a book, and drift off to dreamland…

Why Butterfly Chairs Rock

Posted on July 16, 2010 by LucyB

Every home should have a butterfly chair. What’s that, you might ask? Butterfly chairs typically consist of a folding metal frame with a large cloth stretched over the frame in a butterfly-like shape.

When you have a butterfly chair, we guarantee it will be the first thing you’ll head to after a long day; it’s the perfect little nest to fall back into to rest, read, talk or watch television. And don’t forget, it can also be folded up so you can take it with you when you head to the beach for the summer. Or, if you prefer, you can keep it stored and bring it out whenever you need additional seating (though we suspect that once it’s out, it will stay out).

Our favorite butterfly chairs and covers right now are from Urban Outfitters; they are super comfortable and come in a cool range of prints to suit every home décor, including maroon flowers (pictured), a blue and white geometric print, and a black and green color sensation.

The Hammock: An Essential Piece of Outdoor Furniture

Posted on June 1, 2010 by Sarah

For most of us, summer time is all about kicking back and relaxing in our backyard (if you’re fortunate enough to have one). Sure, patio furniture can really turn your backyard into a nice little lounge area, but if you really want that perfect summertime oasis you need a good hammock. Now, I’m not talking about some sheet tied haphazardly between two tree branches, I’m talking about a serious hammock crafted specifically for extreme lounging.

The Parrot Bay Barbados Pillow Top Hammock is ideal for the serious relaxation connoisseur. That’s right friends–pillow top. I’ve tried out plenty of hammocks in my day, but I’ve always found them to be missing something. Now that I’ve seen this awesome hammock from Parrot Bay, I’m sure what was missing was cushiony pillow topped goodness.

The Parrot Bay Barbados Pillow Top Hammock is available at Amazon.com for $104.99 (margaritas not included)!
