Haworth Bowi Nesting Chair

Minimalist Design for Space and Flexibility

A room that runs a workshop in the morning has to clear for a team lunch by midday. Bowi is built for exactly that.

The seat pivots forward so the chairs nest into one another, storing a full room’s worth against a wall or on a trolley. No lifting, no stacking, no two-person job at the end of a session.

The nesting works using the pivoting mechanism which tilts the seat, letting each chair sit inside the on in front. One person can clear a room in a few minutes.  The nested depth of 6 chairs is 1900 mm. For a 20-seat training room, that is roughly 4 m² of floor you get back the moment the session ends, about half the space the same chairs take standing.

Sustainability

The seat and back pad of the Bowi can be completely refurbished in case the upholstery needs to be repaired due to stains or general wear and tear. This avoids wasting the plastic body of the Bowi. When it is reupholstered around two thirds ( 67%) of the products emissions are saved in comparison to disposing and purchasing a new product. 

That’s why Bowi sits inside Europlan’s product stewardship programme, alongside our Toitū Envirocare partnership and ISO 14064 carbon measurement.
