Rave-Review.com WAVES OF CHANGE A Smart, Ocean-Friendly Desk Chair You’d never know that this sleek ergonomic office chair started its life in the sea. The fully customizable desk chair is made from nearly two pounds of discarded ocean fishing nets,which are the most harmful type of fishing nets because they can “ghost fish” for years,damaging delicate ecosystems and the marine animals that inhabit them. New York-based Humanscale has transformed over 10,000 pounds of discarded fishing nets into Smart Ocean chairs. The chair is also super comfortable with form-sensing mesh technology that adjusts to the contours of your body. HumanScale.com RAVE REV I EW HUMANSCALE
