Designed in Tom Dixon’s Kings Cross London studio, the Fat Work Office Chair was born out of frustration with an uncomfortable, dull and generic office chair which failed to complement his home’s modern aesthetic. Distinctive rounded features, a glossy frame and a choice of colours in premium fabrics allow the chair to be integrated into a variety of home or commercial offices, breakout spaces and public settings regardless of style.
To ensure optimal ergonomic support as you work, the office chair features a smooth up-and-down gas-lift mechanism to fit your desk height, a tilt limiter and forward tilt adjustment. Free-rolling hard castors help you move around with ease while staying comfortably seated.
British designer Tom Dixon rose to prominence in the mid 1980s as “the talented untrained designer with a line in welded salvage furniture.” By the end of the 1980s, he was designing contemporary chairs for Italian design brands like Cappellini before creating his own design company, ‘Eurolounge’, to make and sell his work.
2002 marked a new phase in Tom Dixon’s career with the launch of his eponymous design company which designs and manufactures a wide range of contemporary lighting and furniture inspired by the unique heritage, innovation and the robust, no nonsense engineering of British industry. Tom Dixon’s most iconic designs include the space helmet inspired Mirror Ball Pendant Light, Copper Shade, hand beaten Beat Lights and the Wingback Chair.
Tom Dixon was awarded an OBE in 2001 while one of his most recent accolades includes winning Designer of the Year 2008 from Architektur and Wohnen Magazine.
