Tracing the category from Charles Darwin's castor fitted study chair through the swivel bases of Victorian clerical work, the arrival of gas lift adjustment and the suspended mesh task chairs of the 1990s, the report argues that adjustability turned a piece of furniture into a fitted instrument. Its central observation concerns the present: office seating designed for corporate floor plates is now being bought for British spare bedrooms, dining rooms and living room corners, where footprint, floor type and appearance matter as much as lumbar support. The analysis sets out desk height, seat height and clearance guidance for homes choosing a chair for a multi purpose room."}
