Drafting Chairs & Stools

1. A drafting chair or drafting stool is an essential addition to a complete workspace or studio. And since you'll be spending a lot of time sitting in your drafting chair, it's important to find one that fits your body and your needs.

2. Sitting in a chair or leaning over a table can lead to lower back and neck pain, which can detract from creativity and productivity. Drafting chairs with arms and drafting chairs with backs offer maximum comfort when your time in your workspace or studio matters.

3. If you're prone to lower back pain, or simply looking to prevent sore back and neck muscles, a drafting stool with a back or drafting chair will provide needed support. A chair back provides extra lower back support and can be adjusted for proper back alignment.

4. Drafting chairs and drafting tables go hand in hand. Don't forget to take height into consideration when choosing your drafting chair or stool - choose a drafting chair that works well with the height of your drafting table so you'll have proper posture while working. Drafting chairs and stools can also be adjusted to the exact height you need to keep you in a relaxed position.

5. If you need be able to move your arms freely, consider a drafting chair without arms. Many drafting stools without backs and drafting chairs without arms are constructed with steel and built to withstand rugged use, making them ideal for classroom use.

6. Mobility is important when you need to reach for supplies or tools while working on project. Drafting stools offer a 360-degree swivel and adjustable heights that let you spin and grab what you need without ever leaving your chair.

7. You'll be spending a lot of time sitting in your drafting chair, so it's important to choose a comfortable seat. We have drafting chairs with a variety of seat materials, including fabric-covered seats, molded foam or gel seats, vinyl seats, or wood seats.

8. Just because your office or studio needs to be productive doesn't mean it can't also be creative and coordinated. The decor in your studio should inspire you, and a drafting stool or chair is part of that. We have a wide variety of seat colors for drafting chairs, including black, blue, gray, green, red, and yellow. Choose a color that fits right in or stands right out - it's all up to you.
