Tux Chair

Tux

The Tux family is crafted with a dual focus on both style and functionality. Taking inspiration from the sophisticated elegance of tuxedo suits, the chair's two-piece structure is specifically engineered to offer optimal support to the lower back. This design aims to preserve the natural curvature of the spine, preventing discomfort often associated with extended periods of sitting. Additionally, the structure discreetly conceals the mechanical elements beneath the seat, contributing to the chair's distinctive character and distinguishing it from conventional office chairs.

Tux Chair by Ruya Akyol has been highlighted as an innovative illustration of industrial design by the A' Design Award. Tux Chair earned the Bronze A' Design Award in Office Furniture Design in 2024. The A' Office Furniture Design Award is a highly prestigious international design prize which recognizes outstanding design of desks, chairs, file cabinets, conference tables, cubicles, workstations, reception counters, office partitions and more.
