Cantilever chair at Chairzone
A cantilever chair is more than just a chair. It is a statement for modern design, ergonomic shaping and dynamic sitting. A cantilever chair differs from other seating furniture in that it has no rear leg construction. Instead, a curved metal frame, usually stainless steel or steel, supports the seat. This allows a slight swing when sitting, hence the name: cantilever chair.
This design is unique and looks modern and fresh, which is why cantilever chairs are very popular. However, swinging chairs are also good for posture, as they promote micro-movements, relieving the strain on the back and creating a unique sitting sensation, or rather a free-swinging feeling.
The cantilever chair - how it all began
The cantilever chair is a highlight in the history of modern furniture design. It was created in the early 1930s in the Bauhaus environment, the revolutionary design school that merged art, craftsmanship and industry. The architect and designer Mart Stam is considered one of the inventors of the cantilever chair. His idea of designing a chair without back legs was based on the use of gas-conducting steel tubes, which originally came from industry. This construction made it possible to create a springy seat that combined comfort and minimalism.
What's behind the cantilever chair
The Bauhaus movement strove for functional design that was reduced to the essentials, which had and still has a major influence on many creations over the decades. The cantilever chair embodies this philosophy perfectly. It offers clear lines, a light weight, no superfluous decoration, industrial materials and a new design language. Designers such as Ludwig Mies van der Rohe developed the idea further and created variants that are still considered cantilever stars today. The cantilever chair thus became a symbol of modern seating.
The cantilever chair - Today
Its influence extends far beyond the furniture of Bauhaus design: the cantilever chair stands for a new attitude towards space, movement and materiality. The design fits ever better into the New Work concepts and working environments that define our everyday working lives. Its relevance today extends to conference rooms, dining rooms, classrooms and living rooms. The cantilever chair is an all-rounder and keeps you going even on long working days.
Cantilever chairs in New Work concepts
At a time when rigid office structures are being replaced by flexible working models, the cantilever chair plays a central role. In the home office, in co-working spaces or hybrid meeting rooms, task chairs offer the opportunity to combine movement and ergonomics. The springy design supports micro-movements at work, promotes blood circulation and keeps us fitter during long working hours.
Chairzone.ch offers a good range of cantilever chairs that can be ideally integrated into agile working environments. Thanks to our filter functions, you can quickly find the right model for your requirements in various designs, with armrests, made of leather or fabric, in black or other colors.

The materials at Chairzone are extensive when it comes to cantilever chairs. These chairs are available with the classic stainless steel frame, with powder-coated steel and with lightweight polypropylene elements.

The cover also plays an important role: choose between robust woven fabric, easy-care plastic or luxurious leather, depending on the area of use and desired design. After all, the chair must also fit in with the design concept of your working environment. Choose a cantilever chair from the minimalist design classics category or a modern swivel chair with an integrated backrest and adjustable armrest.
