The Design

About Tux Stull

D'Tux-Famill ass mat engem duebelen Fokus op Stil a Funktionalitéit geschaf ginn. Inspiréiert vun der sophistikéierter Eleganz vu Smoking-Kostüm, ass d'zwee-Stéck-Struktur vum Stull speziell konstruéiert fir optimal Ënnerstëtzung fir de ënneschten Réck ze bidden. Dëst Design zielt drop of, déi natierlech Krümmung vun der Wirbelsail ze erhalen, an sou Onbequemlechkeet ze verhënneren, déi dacks mat laange Sëtzperioden assoziéiert ass. Zousätzlech verstoppt d'Struktur diskret déi mechanesch Elementer ënner dem Sëtz, wat zum distinktiven Charakter vum Stull bäidréit an en vu konventionellen Bürostéil ënnerscheet.
