A study needs two kinds of seat: one to work in, and one to stop working in. Choose them for how long you sit and how you get up. Browse office furniture and desks.
The reading and break chair
The Linear Armchair has the highest, most upright sit of our chairs, on tall matte black metal legs. It is easy to rise from and composed rather than slouchy, so it works as a desk-adjacent or reading chair as well as a lounge piece. The raised frame keeps the floor visible and cleaning simple. A leather version softens gradually with use.
The working chair
The Queen Desk Swivel Chair from Camerich is 66 cm wide and 95 cm tall with a 46 cm seat height. It has a metal frame and plywood seat, sprung with cross-woven elastic webbing under moulded polyurethane foam, and a 360-degree steel swivel base. It comes in fabric, leather or a combination. Leather takes on a soft sheen where you sit.
The desk
The Verge Desk is 160 cm long, 65 cm deep and 74 cm high, with a black walnut veneer top and built-in drawer on black steel legs. Walnut deepens with age and light, so keep it out of harsh sun.

Measure the sit
Set the seat so your feet sit flat on the floor and your forearms are level with the desk. The Queen's seat height is 46 cm and the Verge desk is 74 cm high, so check the two against your own height in store.
Questions
Does the Queen chair adjust in height?
The listing gives a fixed 46 cm seat height. Check the product page or ask the team about adjustment.
Will walnut veneer fade in the sun?
Walnut deepens with age and light. Keep the desk out of harsh direct sun.
Why a separate armchair?
A second seat gives you a place to stop working. The Linear's upright sit is easy to rise from.
