Out of all the different types of furniture, chairs create possibly the greatest challenge when it comes to structure. This is because of the way the body interacts with it and puts pressure on the joint between the seat and the back legs.
Chairs are often, but not always, designed around the human form. To create the ultimate in comfort, it needs to support certain points of the body which are weakened in a sitting position; namely the back and neck. If not directly supporting the body part, it manipulates the body in a way which will force the person to support it themselves.
These aspects of chair design are becoming more and more uniquely interpreted, resulting in ever developing and changing concepts surrounding the altered definition of what a chair can be.
