Altos Series

Celebrated designer Brian Graham created Altos as a fresh approach to highly adaptive guest, bariatric, and easy-access chairs with coordinating tables. Beautifully refined and stylish, yet highly durable, the Altos series allows unlimited design possibilities with optional solid surface, white oak, or walnut arm caps; 13 powder-coat frame finish colors; and the ability to use multiple textiles for the seat and back applications. In addition, Altos provides standard field-replaceable upholstery for more than one lifecycle, guaranteeing long-term return on investment.

In conceiving the Altos collection, Brian Graham found inspiration in his own mother: “How would I design a chair for my own mom one that had heft and strength but did not look like a tank? Altos leverages my 25-year experience as an empathetic designer to create iconic, enduring seating that is purpose-driven and highly durable while also offering an unlimited amount of tactile humanity.” The chair arms offer optional solid wood caps, and the steel frames are available in a wide variety of powder coats from Plural’s innovative emotive color palettes created by Laura Guido-Clark of LOVE GOOD COLOR. According to Graham, this allows the standard side chair to easily adapt to a variety of applications, from all healing environments to corporate, sports, financial, transportation, and many others where durability and design are key considerations.        

When it comes to function, Altos is in a class of its own with a strong steel frame designed to withstand a lifetime of intensive use. Wall-saver legs and back design prevent wear and damage to both the chair and interior surfaces. Seat construction features an integrated clean-out design, and high-density foam and webbing provide superior comfort with an extended lifecycle. Altos’ Easy-Access Chair is designed for hip surgery patients and other applications with a higher seated position for ease of sitting and egress. Altos is designed to perform with a 500 lb. weight capacity for chairs and 800 lbs. for the settee. Altos also features coordinating side and occasional tables to complete the collection for ultimate application flexibility.
