Match the chair to the room
Start with where the chairs will be used most. The wood-frame Side Chair is a considered option for visitor areas and meeting rooms where a fixed, armless seat suits the layout. Its beige seat and back can bring a lighter, warmer appearance to a room. The Xtra Stacking Upholstered Chair is worth considering for multipurpose spaces that change configuration, as its design is made for stacking. Its fabric or PU leather upholstery and metal sled frame create a different visual and material mix.
Both models are listed as meeting and multipurpose chair types, but the best fit depends on the way your team uses the space. If chairs stay in place around a meeting table, prioritize appearance and how the frame works with the rest of the room. If a room is regularly reset, consider whether the Xtra’s stacking format better supports that routine.
Compare materials, colors and fit
Review the actual model and finish options before making a selection. The Side Chair has a wood frame; the Xtra uses a metal sled frame and can be upholstered in fabric or PU leather. The collection’s listed upholstery colors range from neutral shades such as beige, black and grey to brighter options including blue, green, orange, pink and red. Listed base colors include beige, black, grey, silver and white. These are collection-level options, so verify availability for the specific chair and upholstery combination you want.
Use the listed dimensions—53 cm wide, 44 cm seat depth and 46 cm seat height—as a starting point when checking table clearance, circulation space and comfort for your intended use. The chairs do not have adjustable seat height, seat depth or back height, and neither model has armrests. For project planning, review the dimensions PDF and confirm the selected configuration. The listed maximum ballast is 135 kg; refer to the product details when checking suitability for your requirements.
Check documentation and plan your selection
Collection information lists an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) as available and notes FSC certification. If documentation is important to your purchasing process, check the relevant documents for the exact model and configuration. The available resources include catalogue, dimensions, colors and materials, and EPD documents.
Before finalizing a group, decide whether a wood frame or metal sled frame better suits the space, whether the room benefits from a stacking chair, and which upholstery and base colors fit your scheme. Myntwork offers HOWE 40/4 chairs on a monthly lease. Share your intended use, preferred model and finish requirements to help narrow the collection to options that work for your project.
