About Rollerback Kiti cha Kulia Chakula
Rollerback ni kiti cha kulia chakula kilichobuniwa kuendana na maumbo tofauti ya miili. Mto wa nyuma unazunguka kwa uhuru kwenye fimbo, hivyo mtu aliyeketi anaweza kujiegemeza mgongoni na kupata nafasi kadhaa za kukaa huku akiendelea kupata msaada. Fremu imeungwa kwa kutumia chuma imara kilichochomelewa, na ngozi inafunika mito maalum ya povu iliyotengenezwa kwa ubunifu maalum. Umbo lake linachanganya maumbo matatu ya kijiometri ya msingi—pembetatu, duara, na mstatili—kwa ajili ya mwonekano rahisi. Rollerback inalenga kufanya ulaji wa chakula uwe mzuri zaidi kwa kuruhusu mwendo badala ya mkao mmoja uliokwama.

- Unique Properties
- Every person has a different body, and no single dining chair caters to everyone because of that. The Rollerback Dining chair attempts to be a chair for all by allowing the person seated to relax into the back and roll the rear cushion as needed to fit their body. The chair combines the 3 basic geometric shapes, triangle, circle, and rectangle, to make a aesthetically pleasing yet simple design. The freely rotating cushion provides support while allowing you full range of motion, creating a comfortable and kinetic chair.
- Dimensions & Packaging
- 890 x 555 x 430
- Tags
- Chair, leather, dining chair, geometric
- Production Technology
- The chair was welded from solid steel bar and features leather upholstery over custom foam cushions. The rear cushion is mounted on a rod that allows it to freely rotate, while providing support.
- Design Challenge
- The most difficult part of this chair was mounting the rear cushion. The thin steel bar frame needs to be drilled out very precisely to allow for the support rod of the cushion to slot in.
- Inspiration
- Timothy designed the Rollerback dining chair to allow people to be more comfortable while dining. The common dining chair is uncompromising and does not allow for movement while seated. The Rollerback chair features a freely rotating cushion mounted on a rod that allows for multiple sitting positions to keep people more comfortable while seated, while still providing support.
- Project Duration
- The project started in March and ended in June 2022 in San Francisco
- Operation Flow
- This dining chair is meant to be used however it suits the person seated. The chair provides the essential support that a chair needs to, while letting roll into the back of the chair and get comfortable.
