Elevating Comfort and Performance
PRODUCT INFORMATION
A decade after its debut as a premium executive and waiting area chair, Hive has been reimagined to meet the dynamic needs of modern workspaces. Designed by Favaretto & Partners, the Hive Executive chair merges ergonomic innovation with refined aesthetics, delivering unparalleled comfort and functionality for contemporary offices.
At its core, Hive Executive features a sculpted polyurethane shell, available in both chair and armchair versions with two backrest height options. Its bold vertical stitching and compact armrests create a sophisticated yet supportive profile, while the gas-lift height adjustment and tilting mechanism provide personalized comfort throughout the workday.
Seated on a sturdy five-star swivel base with smooth-rolling casters, Hive Executive ensures effortless mobility and adaptability, making it an ideal choice for executive offices, conference rooms, and collaborative workspaces. The seat, crafted from flexible foam and wrapped in premium textile upholstery, delivers plush support, enhancing productivity and well-being.
Designed for professionals who demand style and performance, Hive Executive brings an elevated sense of comfort to any workspace—where innovation meets timeless design.
