by AF 0520 i3 — May 24, 2010—Stylex has introduced the Sava multi-purpose chair. Designed by award-winning architect Sava Cvek, Sava is elegant in both form and function, offering maximum versatility for both task and conference applications at a competitive price-point, according to Stylex. Crafted in cast aluminum, Sava is up to 98 percent recyclable, and like all Stylex products, it is Greenguard certified.
The Sava line was tooled from the ground up, with the goal of accommodating a broad range of body types and sizes, said Stylex.
The task version contains four paddles to control seat height, tension, seat depth, and tilt lock. These are easily reachable for anyone from the seated position and accommodate a wide variety of users. Historically, the geometry and mechanisms of most chair controls have focused on supporting heavier users. With Savas fingertip tension control, people that are 90 or 275 pounds can find the right level of adjustment in just one second.
Cvek developed Savas Balanced Tilt mechanism, which allows the user to stretch in a full range of motion while keeping feet on the ground. Its patented, dual-spring system adjusts the distribution of tension throughout the range of motion. In the reclined position, the springs retain their stored energy and actively assist the users return to a fully upright posture.
The Sava task arm is height-adjustable with a rotating cap that can be positioned to put the right support where its needed. The function of the task arm is sophisticated, intuitive, and effective, says the company.
