Ever since the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020, people have spent time and money to upgrade their home office and create the perfect work from home environment. We have seen many layouts and gadgets but none compare to the Emperor chair by MWE Lab. Founded in 2008 by Martin Carpentier, MWE’s has created a uniquely designed workstation for those that spend long hours in front of a computer screen.
The chair is inspired by the exoskeleton of a scorpion with the end of the tail holding the monitors. It is designed to create the optimal ergonomic conditions for the user. Sitting in the Emperor XT feels like being in the cockpit of a spaceship. It is made out of industrial grade steel, has an integrated audio system, LED lighting and has space for up to five monitors.
In its most basic configuration, the Emperor XT will cost you around $5,000 but if you add upgrades and customization elements such as lights, color accents, monitors, leg rests and trays, the price will go up to over $12,000. But there is more value to the Emperor. Sitting in the chair feels immersive, like being in a cocoon. We feel like this is a great way to reduce distractions that a work from home environment can entail and focus on getting the job done, saving you precious time and energy. MWE Labs offers a bespoke design tool (click here) where you can visualize your own customized Emperor chair in 3D.
