If
you
think
about
professions
with
difficult
working
conditions,
probably
the
orchestra
musician
won’t
come
to
your
mind.
Classical
concerts
are
a
precious
part
of
our
culture
–
but
are
stressing
the
musicians
tremendously.
A
high
noise
level
and
strained
seating
on
ergonomically
inappropriate
furniture
for
several
hours
a
day,
can
cause
serious
health
problems.
The
concept
study
C1
counteracts
these
phenomena
and
supports
orchestra
musicians
in
their
working
routine,
improves
disease
prevention, well-being and also the quality of their work.
Through
a
long
and
intensive
collaboration
with
orchestra
musicians
of
the
Staatstheater
in
Karlsruhe
and
an
extensive
and
meticulously
development
the
C1
revolutionizes
the
ergonomics
of
the
musicians
and
also
the
handling
of
all
involved
persons
in
relation to transport, storage and sustainability.
We
are
Felix
Cordes
and
Michael
Müller,
Industrial
Design
students
at
the
University
of
Applied
Sciences
Schwäbisch
Gmünd
and
developed
the
C1
in
cooperation
with
Wilde
+
Spieth,
the
Staatstheater Karlsruhe and the Unfallkasse Baden-Württemberg.
C1
sets
new
standards
and
exceeds
all
requirements
that
a
contemporary
orchestra
chair
has
to
offer.
Its
high
adaptability
to
physical
conditions
and
individual
preferences,
in
addition
to
the
simple
and
intuitive
control,
creates
a
wide
range
of
application
possibilities
for
professional
musicians
of
an
orchestra.
This
chair
is ergonomic, because it lets you sit as you need it.
The
low-complex,
but
strong
construction
resists
a
permanent
load
up
to
130
kg
over
years
and
has
a
very
low
own
weight
of
6
kg.
Optimal
transport
and
space-saving
storage
is
ensured
by
the
outstanding
stackability
in
combination
with
a
wide
range
of
storage
possibilities.
In
case
of
maintenance,
any
parts
can
be
repaired
or
replaced
quickly
and
easily
thanks
to
the
simple
construction.

taking away the pleasure of playing.“

„Nobody ever thinks about the hard working
conditions of orchestra musicians.“
