Sitting is, in fact, the bane of the present-day work culture but the bright part is that the right type of office chairs can set things right.

Based on the place where they are suited to be kept, the office chairs acquire different names and the difference also reflects in their appearance. Starting with meeting room chairs, they are kept in the meeting room and are mostly space-savvy as the meeting rooms have to accommodate a considerable number of people. Stackable chairs are best option as meeting room chairs because they can be stored easily one over another and also occupy less space.

Church chairs are also great for training rooms as they are comfortable and perfect for creating straight rows. As for counter chairs or operator/task chairs, they are meant for the operators at the reception counter. These chairs should be comfortable and lightweight because the receptionist/operator needs to move around. Mostly, these chairs do not have arm rest.
Typist chairs or drafting chairs/stools are also a lot like counter chairs, but they have arm rests. Computer chairs are regular ergonomic office chairs for staff who work behind a desk. When it comes to managers and officials high up in the position hierarchy, high end office chairs or executive office chairs or heavy-duty chairs are the best choice. Tall office chairs are also a fitting candidate for the higher-ups. These chairs are spacious, comfortable and classy.

Speaking of look and appeal, office chairs are available in different material. You can find the timeless timber chairs as well as the new-age leather chairs.

The seating arrangement of an office shares a close relationship with the chairs. So, suitable chairs should be placed in specific places for the latter to serve their purpose. For collaborative seating, lightweight chairs without arm rests are suitable while acoustic seating is best served by cushiony chairs and mesh office chairs.
