That's why the words chair, seat and bench have found themselves used to describe high status professions, from academia to Parliament to the law. At their most basic, though, chairs are about our relationship to gravity. Sitting is simply a matter of gravity. And upholstery is about keeping those relationships in order.

It has to actually work.
