The Vision Chair: The First Chair To Bring Your Posture Back

The Vision Chair is the world’s first chair to make Elevated Seating possible.

What makes the Vision Chair revolutionary isn’t a single adjustment or feature; it’s an entirely new geometry. We call it Elevated Seating. Our patent-pending mechanism creates a seating angle that combines the benefits of standing with the ease of sitting.

By elevating the seat, the pelvis naturally rotates forward, restoring the spine’s natural S-curve. It works in harmony with the body’s own mechanics, creating comfort so natural you forget you’re sitting at all.

The body finds a standing-like posture even while sitting, when the seating angle is elevated.

90-degree chairs cause the spine to collapse into a painful ‘C’ curve. This flaw is the source of daily back pain, fatigue, and distraction that millions accept as normal. We treat this problem with “lumbar support, but it’s a band-aid, not a cure.

The real problem? Even the most expensive ‘ergonomic’ chairs rely on the same outdated design principles introduced in the 1960s.

It’s time to change the way we sit.

For decades, designers knew that a forward-tilted, elevated seat was the key to healthy posture. But sliding made it impossible. 

The Vision Chair is a breakthrough in ergonomics that made it possible with patent-pending three-part innovation working in harmony.

We set out to make Elevated Seating possible for as many people as possible. With adjustable seat height, backrest, and headrest, the Vision Chair adapts to users from 145 cm to 199 cm (4’9″–6’7″)  and supports up to 300 lbs (136kg) – delivering balanced comfort and natural posture support.

The Vision Chair was born from the union of two design worlds: the mechanical discipline and precision of German engineering, and the minimal, human-centered principles of Scandinavian design.

Its timeless form stays up to date, no matter the decade. 

The Vision X and Vision Y are designed to suit different preferences while delivering the same elevated seating experience.

Here’s how they compare:

Both models feature the T-Mech™ system, Contour Cradle seat, and Anti-Slip Matrix, giving you the same patented science of elevated seating. The difference comes down to how much support and adjustability you prefer.

Our work stands on the shoulders of the scientists, doctors, and designers who first studied the true relationship between the human body and the act of sitting.

Every great creation starts with a vision. The Vision Chair was designed to support that pursuit, aligning your body so your focus can flow freely.

The Vision Chair brings harmony to your work and your space. Its sculpted form complements modern interiors while quietly supporting your posture and performance.

The Vision Chair is designed to work as part of a dynamic ergonomic system. To unlock the full, transformative benefits of Elevated Seating, your worksurface should be raised by 10-15 cm (4-6 inches).

While the chair is the perfect partner for any height-adjustable desk, you don’t need a new one to get started. You can easily achieve the ideal height with simple and affordable solutions like under-leg table raisers or tabletop raisers, or, as shown below: 

The Vision Chair adjusts to you – whether you’re leaning in to focus or settling back to unwind. Each position feels natural and supported, keeping comfort consistent as your posture changes throughout the day.

We didn’t just test the Vision Chair with users; we shared it with one of the most respected minds in the world of high-performance seating: Neal Talstliz.

As the visionary designer behind the iconic Michael Jordan Chair for Nike, Neal knows what it takes to create a product that supports the world’s greatest performers. After seeing the science and experiencing the Vision Chair for himself, this is what he had to say.

More than Form and Function
Our design philosophy follows the Scandinavian principle of thoughtful reduction – perfection is achieved not when nothing more can be added, but when nothing more can be taken away. Every part of the Vision Chair is chosen for purpose: minimal material, maximum strength, timeless design.

The Vision Chair is engineered to accommodate a wide range of body types – from 145 cm to 200 cm (4’9″–6’7″) – with two standpipes that come by default, ensuring proper ergonomic geometry for every user. Supporting up to 300 lbs (136 kg).

Below are the dimensional drawings of the Vision X and Vision Y models. These illustrate the chair’s physical proportions and core structural measurements.

Step into the next era of ergonomics. As a backer, you’ll unlock up to 54% off the future retail price and become one of the founding members of the Levitask community. Your support helps us bring the Vision Chair to life and share it with people everywhere who are ready to rethink the way we sit.

Both the Vision X and Y and the bundles come with folding armrests as standard. You can upgrade to 4D fully adjustable by selecting the add-on reward tier.

It started in a workshop. West Germany. A young Klaus, learning from his grandfather, a master joiner. It was about craftsmanship. Uncompromising quality. He earned his journeyman’s medal before he even started as an engineer. This was the foundation. 

Then, Copenhagen. 1977. The epicenter of design.

While studying Scandinavian Design and Ergonomics in Denmark, Klaus had a fateful encounter that would define his life’s work. 

He met Dr. A.C. Mandal, a pioneering researcher who spent his life proving a simple truth: the 90-degree chair was a mistake. He asked the question that sparked it all: 

For Klaus, this was it. A lifelong obsession was born. For his final graduation project in 1981, Klaus devoted himself to this challenge, building his first prototype based on these revolutionary ideas.

Life happened. A successful corporate career, designing furniture across Asia. But the obsession never faded. In 2000, he left it all behind to solve the problem: to finally solve sitting, once and for all. 

Years of painstaking research followed, leading to his first patent in 2013.

By 2018, he had it. The patents. The early mechanism prototype. Confident he had created something extraordinary, he took it to the giants of the office chair furniture world

The market isn’t ready.” “You’re too early,” they said. The truth? His idea didn’t just improve on the existing ergonomic standard – it made it obsolete. 

Launching it would have meant admitting their best-selling chairs, their breadwinners, were fundamentally flawed. It would have vaporized millions in R&D budgets spent on a broken paradigm. So they passed.

That’s when Michael came in. 2021. 

The industry’s rejection wasn’t a failure; it simply meant we had no choice but to do it ourselves. 

So we built a team. A small, obsessed team of nine. 

And we partnered with some of the best manufacturers in the world – people who saw the vision and had the courage to build it with us. The last four years have been the hardest of our lives. But now, our Vision is here. 

Soon, it will be yours. 

The Vision Chair is a precision-built, high-performance ergonomic chair, crafted with metal components, advanced mechanisms, and durable materials designed to last.
