Seat ease - How to overcome the loss of autonomy?

Stand and sit are basic gestures of any bodied person. It can be barriers to support aging people at home, but also to enjoy public space. With a normal chair, the movement to sit involves accepting an imbalance that may be insecure. 

 

Upper position - the user is well sustained by the seat and backrest of the seat

        

Also, our seat welcomes and supports the movement and rhythm of the person sits. 

 

Interim position  - going down movement

      

The handlebar allows a sense of security because the user can stick to it. 

 

Lowest position - Perfect position for reading or having a rest

      

 

Interim position  - going up movement

    

When the person gets up, the seat sustains throughout the movement and relieves its efforts in carrying the weight of the body.

 

Upper position - the user is well sustained by the seat and backrest of the seat

   

The handlebar then stabilizes the return to standing position.
