surf-chair_3yngt_69As of yet, I am able to sit upright, facing my monitor, for many hours at a stretch in a day and also maintain a healthy back. But since my passion and job involves surfing internet, I need to focus on getting an ergonomically designed work station that will keep all the posture related probs at bay. Theoretically, on the mention of the Surf Chair, your mind with drift to relaxing lazing chairs on the promenades and beach fronts. But in a geek’s dictionary, it’s not the same. A true geek can immediately conjure up an image of a chair used to surf the net at ease. Like the one designed by Kenneth Lylover! Intended for the ‘Internet Collection’ competition at the Scandinavian Furniture Fair, this rocking chair also managed to bag the price of Winner of “Best Product” there. This chair seems to be very comfortable, as you can see from this picture that it is fitted with numerous pillows to support every part of body.

Also the monitor is smartly suspended in front of the user by this one piece work station. However the keyboard and mouse are supposed to be placed as usual on the users lap. Wonder why some kinda folding tray isn’t fitted in this otherwise uber cool workstation?

Though we managed to bring to you array of smart and elegant workstations some time ago, this Surf Chair seems to be much more simpler and straight-thinking then all of ’em

We, over at BornRich, are crazy about concept gadgets that could change the way we eat, drink, and interact. Lately, we spotted the Digitable coffee table, Spekti coffee table, One & Co coffee table, and the very attractive XYZ Computer Desk. This time, we have yet another multimedia coffee table that looks quite good, glossy, and inviting. The Digitable by Peter Lea integrates a CD/DVD player and disc storage carousel into a contemporary glass coffee table (do check out the image gallery). All you need to do is to pair it with your plasma TV and enjoy your favorite tracks and movies whilst sipping your cup of coffee. The form factor and the idea does look good (hope we see it for real too), but I am still not able to get myself out of the ecstasy of the XYZ computer desk.
