Match the chair to the room
Start with the way people use each space. For a conference room where attendees sit around a table, consider whether the swivel armchair or the side chair better suits the room layout and seating plan. The armchair has armrests and upholstery, while the side chair has four legs and can be stacked. In visitor areas or shared rooms, stacking may be useful when chairs need to be moved or put away between uses.
If you are furnishing several room types, you do not have to choose one model for every setting. Compare the two chairs by function, available space and how the seating needs to look alongside the rest of the room.
Compare dimensions and practical details
Check the listed dimensions against your floor plan and table height before selecting a model. The family information lists widths of 61 cm for the armchair and 49 cm for the side chair, with a seat depth of 44 cm and seat height of 46 cm. Confirm the relevant model details on its dimensions sheet, especially when planning chair clearances or a close-fitting conference layout. The listed maximum load for the family is 135 kg.
Neither chair has adjustable seat height, seat depth or back height, and the family has no lumbar support or headrest. If adjustability is essential for your users, take this into account before choosing between the AS100 models.
Review materials and finishes
For the armchair, upholstery choices include fabric, leather and PU leather, with listed upholstery colors including beige, black, blue, brown, green, grey, orange, pink and red. Family-level base material options include steel, plastic and wood; base colors listed are black, grey and silver. Check the product-specific colors and materials information to confirm which choices apply to the model you are considering. The side chair listing also identifies polyamide as a material.
What to check before specifying
Compare the catalogue and dimensions PDFs, then review the colors and materials information for the finish you need. An Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) is available for the collection. Warranty information lists two years. If you are planning a project with several rooms, confirm model quantities, dimensions and finish selections together so the specification works as a whole.
Myntwork offers HOWE AS100 chairs on a monthly lease. Review the two models and their available documentation to decide which option fits each space.
