You can now bring one of the simplest of joys from your childhood — enjoying a leisurely swing — into your office without having to hang cables from the ceiling, or move furniture out of the way. At least you can if Florent Coirier ever decides to actually sell her swinging Portique Armchair.
Its metal tubular frame supports a couple of polyester ropes attached to a classic wooden swing seat. You’re not going to be able to swing in large sweeping arcs, but you can certainly muster a gentle back and forth motion like you were in a rocking chair. All it needs is an accompanying see-saw desk and coming to work will be just like spending your days at a playground.
