Boss Design has always been known for blending elegant aesthetics with commercial-grade performance. Their latest addition—the Uma Meeting Chair—is no exception. Introduced during Clerkenwell Design Week 2022 and now available to specifiers, Uma offers a fresh perspective on what a meeting chair can be: light in scale, high in comfort, and beautifully refined for contemporary spaces.
Whether you’re furnishing executive boardrooms, casual meeting zones, or breakout areas, Uma delivers the design impact and ergonomic support today’s workplaces demand.
A Chair That Invites Connection
The Uma Chair is designed for conversation and collaboration. With its soft geometry and relaxed profile, it immediately communicates comfort and sophistication. But beyond the surface, it’s a highly considered product that supports posture, flexibility, and long-term sitting.
Designed and manufactured in the UK by Boss Design, Uma responds to a growing need for human-centered design in shared office environments. Its subtle contours, gentle angles, and careful proportions ensure users feel welcome—whether for a five-minute huddle or a full-day workshop.
Built to Perform, Styled to Impress
Uma is available in a range of base options to suit any meeting space configuration:
- 4-leg metal base for a clean, minimal look
- 5-star swivel base for mobility and versatility
- Cantilever frame for a floating, architectural feel
Each base complements the sculptural shell design and comes in various finishes, allowing for aesthetic harmony across interior design schemes.
Customization is another key feature. The Uma chair supports fully upholstered options, giving specifiers the freedom to mix and match textiles or leather to fit branding or style preferences. Contrast stitching, tone-on-tone fabric selections, and premium detailing elevate Uma into a chair that feels as tailored as it looks.
Comfort That Lasts
Unlike many chairs in its category, Uma isn’t just about appearance. It’s engineered to deliver comfort that holds up during long meetings and presentations. The molded shell offers just the right balance of structure and flexibility, and the padded seat ensures support without sacrificing the sleek profile.
Its lightweight construction also makes it easy to rearrange or reposition—ideal for dynamic, reconfigurable office environments.
A Responsible Design for Forward-Thinking Workspaces
Sustainability is a core principle behind Uma. Like all Boss Design products, it’s built to meet rigorous environmental and quality standards. The chair is crafted using responsibly sourced materials, and its modular design supports disassembly and recycling at end of life.
This makes Uma an ideal choice for organizations aiming to combine eco-conscious values with modern aesthetics.
Why Uma Stands Out
In a world where meeting spaces are evolving to become more welcoming and flexible, the Uma Chair arrives at just the right time. It offers a clear design language that fits seamlessly into premium office environments, while also performing as a reliable tool for daily collaboration.
Whether you’re furnishing a private conference room, open-plan meeting pod, or creative studio space, Uma provides the perfect balance of comfort, craftsmanship, and clarity of design.
