Why is there such a thing as an uncomfortable chair? We as humans design them, and we understand that most humans are built roughly the same. So why do we design things that are intentionally not comfortable? A chair has one purpose: to be sat on. How did we manage to complicate that? Somewhere along the way, priorities shifted—style, cost, or even control overtook comfort. Maybe it’s a reflection of how we overlook the basics in favor of appearances. Whatever the reason, it’s baffling that we’ve let something so simple become unnecessarily problematic. It’s time to fix that, isn’t it?
