Spirit: New-Generation Sustainable Automotive Seat

Spirit is a new-generation sustainable automotive seat developed by looking holistically at the life cycle of the materials and processes involved.  Research shows that the foam cushion and the metal frame in standard seats have the greatest environmental impact, making them a logical starting point for a new seat design. Inspired by human bone and muscle anatomy, as well as racing seat structures, the Spirit’s efficient architecture mimics and cradles human curvatures, simultaneously providing support and comfort.
