From a future standpoint, this trend shall last in this unprecedented time, which could increase the demand for home-working essentials. Oort is a home office chair which makes working and relaxing compatible. Oort is derived from the space term "Oort cloud", that is, a giant sphere consisting of space debris surrounding the solar system. Hence, being inspired by the Oort cloud, the arm-rest, backrest, and seat are designed to be in the shell-like shape that embraces the user while sitting on it. Furthermore, Oort has three ergonomic features, the arm-rest, lumbar support and backrest recline.
