The Perfect A Lounge Chair To Surf

112508_rg_daybed_01.jpgLounge chairs are great. They are a mix between chairs and beds and usually are extremely comfortable. I'm sure that we aren't the only ones that noticed that lounge chairs are also great when combined with a laptop or a computer. If you spend a lot of time in front of one, lounge chairs are perfect to change positions and to relax.

112508_rg_daybed_03.jpgThat being said, we haven't seen many lounge chairs like this one. It's called the Daybed home workstation and was designed by Manuelsaez for Humanscale. The Daybed was created in order to prevent unhealthy postures that result from working on your computer on coffee tables and couches. This lounge chair is designed for light home office use, but we think that it could be used as a replacement to most workstations, making things a lot more ergonomic.

112508_rg_daybed_04.jpgThe Daybed is a modern lounge chair and ottoman that is ergonomically designed for laptop computer support. It corrects your posture and makes spending time in front of your laptop more enjoyable, since spending extra hours on a desk isn't what we really do once we come home from work. Some lounge chairs come with similar small tables, but this is the first one we've seen specifically made as such. It does remind us of something out of science-fiction, but that's not saying that it doesn't look good. It does look great and if space is at a premium in your home, this might be the perfect way to creating another workstation. It thankfully also includes some smart cable management to make things look a lot less messy.[via Yanko Design]

My production office is right next to Manuel Saez's design studio in Long Island City. These are great guys and gals and they do a lot of cool stuff in there. I've always lusted after this chair since seeing their work.
