Poltrona direzionale Freedom
Designer Niels Diffrient aimed to design an office chair that automatically adapts to the user, allowing them to move freely from posture to posture. Diffrient’s unique approach removed complexities found in other chairs, such as cumbersome recline levers and back tension dials for a truly ergonomic task chair.
As a result, he developed a recline mechanism that perfectly adjusts to the user, definitively reinventing modern task seating to be truly simple, functional and beautiful.
With innovative recline that provides constant support and a pivoting backrest that automatically adjusts to the needs of the spine, the Freedom chair is exceptionally comfortable and promotes movement throughout the day. Its refined and sculpted cushions were designed to mimic the body’s natural contours and decrease pressure point loads for premium comfort. Like all Humanscale chairs, the Freedom chair was designed to look and function like new after years of consistent use.

Xtreme fabric upholstery
Xtreme is a modern fabric made of 100% recycled polyester.
Its elastic properties, combined with its abrasion resistance, as well as its anti-pilling properties, make Xtreme an appropriate fabric that ensures a long service life. Xtreme is certified for the EU Ecolabel.
Dynamic neck rest
The neck rest is designed to ensure adequate support for the neck area and is height-adjustable (up to 125 mm) to meet and satisfy the postural requirements of most users.
Backrest tilt and height adjuster
Self-adjusting backrest tilt, which automatically provides the right amount of support throughout the entire tilt range, regardless of the user’s weight (from 45kg up to 136kg).
In addition, the height can be adjusted for comfortable lumbar and back support (up to 70mm).
Synchronised and tiltable armrests
The armrests can be adjusted in height and synchronously, with the obvious advantage of providing additional comfort for the arms and shoulders as well, avoiding unnecessary and tiring loads.
The armrests are not only height-adjustable but, integrated into the backrest frame, also automatically adjust when tilting the backrest with an additional postural benefit: the weight of the arms is absorbed by the armrest support, preventing annoying discomfort.
In addition, the armrests are adjustable to a minimum height position, i.e. they can be lowered almost to the height of the seat to allow a prolonged posture towards the desk, with the arms resting on the work surface, thus allowing the armrests to be positioned well below the desk.
