Fancy a RM35,000 Ferrari office chair?

By CARSIFU | 11 April 2017


MARANELLO: If the car is way above your pay grade, the Ferrari office chair will be a more affordable consolation.

The “Cockpit” is the first office chair designed by Ferrari Design Centre and produced by Poltrona Frau, which has upholstered the interiors of Ferrari cars since the 80s.

The armchair has an architectural and modular structure, and offers expansion possibilities. For the moment two versions are available: the President and the Executive. Both comprise a reclining base and seat, integrated with two different backrests. The President is the managerial model with a high backrest that is inspired by the ergonomics of competitive racing seats. The Executive model, a chair that adapts to all work contexts, has a deliberately low and narrow backrest to ensure more freedom of movement.

The President retails for 10,000 euros (RM47,000), while the Executive is priced at 7,500 euros (RM35,205).

The materials are the same as those used in Ferrari cars, like the external shell moulded from carbon or alutex. The central band on the seat takes its cue from racing seats, while the swivel device sports the same design and mechanical elements as the steering wheel.

For the leather upholstery, the Ferrari Design Centre team has chosen shades and finishes inspired by the trim of the three Tailor-Made service lines, which allow for the personalised configuration of the car: Scuderia, Classica and Inedita. Cockpit can also be customised in terms of its colours and materials.
