Related: my friend Sascha is starting production of this design classic furniture piece[1] from his collection again:
I have one of the original prototypes in my flat and I've been sitting in it, while coding, 8-10hs every day.
Pretty much since the lockdown started here in Germany and throughout the rest of this year so far.
The reclining angle is fixed in three steps from 125-130-135deg which is ideal, pressure wise[2]. The legs are up so far that they won't fall asleep (your feet have to be under your heart, vertically, for that to 'just work').
It is one the most comfortable 'chairs' I know. Before the lockdown I never used it for working, only for reading or watching movies. When there's a sit-in at my place there's usually a fight for it among the guests.
It doesn't yet have any of the contraptions attached to it to make it into a 'lay-down desk' though.
I usually work with a laptop on my legs and for that it's absolutely fine -- as-is.
Sascha is now looking into designing an extension that allows mounting 1-3 screens and a keyboard/mouse/touchpad/Wacom combo. Just like the contraption in the linked article. :]
With the caveats: it will be structurally sound (he's an ex aerospace engineer) and -- assumedly -- beautiful too.
I'll try posting this on the front page once his shop goes live.
