Title: Jot
By: rick
Description: Jot

You wait. You text. You talk. You make notes. You take a minute to gather your thoughts. Jot is a system of lounge seating with an integral tablet surface.

Lounge and waiting areas are where we open our laptops, check our messages, hold short conversations and make notes. Tablet chairs today are like economy coach seats on an airplane. The sides are tight, the tablet folds over and the table surface is a contrasting material to the body of the chair making it feel like a visual afterthought.

Jot is first class seating; open on one side for easy entry. No need to move your things to get out of the seat. Jot’s tablet flows from the sides and bottom wood material creating one integrated feel. The upholstered seat cushion wraps from the perpendicular direction. The play between the symmetrical cushion and the asymmetrical wood frame leads the user to the open side.

Place a left and right unit together at the tablet end for a larger surface and two people can work together (lower left picture). Place a left and right unit together at the open end for a more traditional symmetrical couch (lower center picture). Jot’s relaxed asymmetrical design creates a comfortable, effective and practical solution to the lounge / waiting area.
Jot details:
- 28” wide x 28” deep x 30” high
- 9.6” deep by 11.3” wide integral writing surface
- right & left units
- to be offered in a variety of sustainably developed wood and upholstery
- chrome metal legs to reflect the floor and help “float” the contrasting asymmetrical wood and upholstered seat

Jot is a fresh approach to the need for full time tablet surfaces in lounge seating.
