out there. Don't judge a book by it's cover though! These strange birds are actually some of the most comfortable, efficient office chairs on the market today. If you are on the lookout for a high tech chair for blast your workplace into the future, here's our top five out-of-this-world ergonomic chairs to help you get started!
Global Arti
It's sort of funny that the the chair which is probably the most normal looking of this bunch is still a bit of a strange image by normal office chair standards, but don't let the looks fool you! The 6670-2
Global Articulating Back Office Chair is one of the most comfortable chairs on the market today. The odd looking back actually articulates like a human spine, allowing for an exceptionally comfortable seating experience.

RFM Carmel
As strange as this chair looks, it certainly put's forth RFM's commitment to ergonomics first! The
Carmel Ergonomic Chair by RFM uses a highly sophisticated professional design that encourages a "shoulders back" posture. Because the human body is actually much better suited to standing, a slouching posture while sitting puts a lot of stress on the spine, which is usually what causes back pain in most people. The shoulders back posture forced by the Carmel chair automatically improves posture, encouraging users to sit properly, thus relieving back pain. As if that weren't enough, the chair also incorporates a special thoracic ridge to further reduce stress and is available in RFM's vast array of signature color options. The skinny back provides tons of freedom of motion, making it perfect for users that are constantly swiveling around their desk space answering phones, jostling papers, and staying active. Like the Arti, this chair features a strange design that is most assuredly the way of the future. At its current affordable price, the Carmel will pay for itself in comfort in no time at all.

Designed by an osteopath to treat lower back pain, the Swopper chair boasts the highest caliber of German engineering.
