JOHAN LARSVALL - IDESIGN The Swedish designer Johan Larsvall and his team at Idesign have designed many successful task chairs for Kinnarps. Their goal with Capella was to design an elegant and ergonomic task chair based on straight geometry. With care and comfort in all parts. A slimmed back, well-designed seams, floating armrests, an elegant star base and inviting seat. All parts are equally important to completing the appealing whole. Which makes Capella just as comfortable to sit in as it is pleasing to look at. A chair that stands the test of time. “With Capella, we worked toward...

NEXT OFFICE™ – ACTIVITY BASED WORKING Nowadays, with the help of technology, we can work whenever and wherever we like. The need for personal workplaces is on the decline and there is instead an increasing need for flexible, activity-based environments. Where you can find an optimal balance between private and social spheres, between meetings and individual work, and between concentration and dialogue. With its user-friendliness and intuitive functionality, Capella is ideal for these working environments. Where it is easily adapted to suit different users and situations during a working day.

FOR A CREATIVE CLIMATE With its pure design, Capella suits many different types of working environments. Naturally becoming part of larger and smaller groups that share the working day with each other. You can place chairs side by side. Opposite each other or on their own. Whatever the situation it can be part of a complete solution. And works well in both an individual workstation or with a bench shared by many people.

USER-FRIENDLY FUNCTIONALITY We have partnered with Professor Anna-Lisa Osvalder, researcher at Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg when designing Capella. She helped with the design and positioning of the control levers by testing and evaluating different prototypes during the development stage. This resulted in making Capella a very intuitive chair. You can easily use its unique functionality in a correct manner to get the best possible comfort and ergonomical seating experience. The new-developed levers are positioned to give easy access to all the adjustments needed to help...

FUNCTIONS & OPTIONS FREEMOTION™ - FOR ACTIVE SEATING Capella’s FreeMotion mechanism creates the conditions for active sitting through well-balanced micromovements in the seat. The seat and the back of the chair move independently of each other and in this way follow your movements. You can easily set the tilting resistance and also variably lock the tilt. The seat is never locked but moves with micro-movements even when the tilt is locked.

SEAT HEIGHT You can easily set the chair’s seat height to suit you and your height. This is to give your body the best possible support. Adjust the height so that your feet are flat on the floor and your knee joints are in a 90° position. SEAT DEPTH The seat depth can be adjusted in relation to the chair back to give the best possible seating position and support for your legs and thighs. It is good to have 20 to 30 mm between the back of the knee and the seat for the best possible comfort. BACK HEIGHT All back adjustments are carried out on the chair back. It is important to set the chair...

FUNCTIONS & OPTIONS CHAIR TILT RESISTANCE The round lever allows you to easily set the tilting resistance in the chair to fully customise it to your needs.

HEADREST The adjustable headrest (NC) offers full movement functionality. It can be set forward or...
