These chairs are distinguished by their simple and functional design, which perfectly embodies the modern style of the 1960s and 1970s, combining elegance and practicality. All four chairs are mounted on a five-spoke swivel base with casters, making them easily mobile and suitable for dynamic work spaces. The seat and back are made of red plastic with a matching fabric cushion for comfort and support. The lower frames are made of metal, with a brushed finish, to which casters are attached. Two of the chairs have black armrests, while the other two have no armrests. The presence of these variations suggests that the Modus line offered flexible options for use in different environments, both offices and more informal work spaces.
