Buoy Side Chair by Steelcase
Buoy is an active-sitting side/guest chair designed to bring movement, flexibility, and ergonomic support to workspaces and informal seating zones. Its playful, minimal form and adjustable design make it ideal for dynamic, collaborative, or lounge-style environments.
Key Features:
- The curved base allows the chair to rock, tilt, and swivel — engaging core muscles and encouraging posture variation rather than static sitting.
- Height-adjustable over a range of about 5.5 inches via a pneumatic lift lever, ensuring users of different heights can find a comfortable seating position.
- Lightweight and portable — weighing around 20 lb (≈ 9 kg) and equipped with a built-in handle to easily move between desks, meeting zones, or work settings.
- Designed to support active sitting habits, helping counteract the negative effects of prolonged sedentary posture by encouraging micro-movements and core engagement.
Ideal For:
Flexible workspaces, collaborative offices, hot-desking zones, lounge or breakout areas, home workstations, anywhere a dynamic seating solution that supports frequent posture shifts and varied working styles is useful.
Available Options:
Buoy offers multiple shell (“cap”) colors and base colors to suit different aesthetic preferences or branding. The seat cap is available in a variety of upholstery or shell-finish options, and the base comes in multiple color choices to coordinate with interiors.
