HBF and its Strategic Design Advisor Todd Bracher’s seating collection, Vela, has been updated for 2019 with two configurations; as a task chair with glides and in an armless version.
Crafted to represent an expression of the evolving workplace, Vela approaches contract furniture in a democratic way, offering a design that looks just as fitting in an executive’s office or around a conference table. The S-curve back and molded foam cushioning of the chair delivers comfortable ergonomics, with Vela’s name (stemming from the Latin word “velum”) representing its ability to support the body’s nuances, while still offering a cohesive look and feel.
With the 2019 additions, Vela offers a total of six new chairs – with varying options from mid- or high-back, armless or cast aluminum arms, and a 5-pronged based with either casters or glides. The configuration options allow Vela to be utilized with increased customization and flexibility, from a task chair at a designated workstation or in more informal, collaborative contract settings.
Vela is available in fabric/leather and polished aluminum or black metal for the base (five-pronged base with either casters or glides) and for the cast aluminum arms (or available armless). Both new options (armless and glided) can be combined or integrated separately and are available in a mid- or high-back variant, to accommodate individual user preference.
