HÅG Capisco

The HAG Capisco is not just an office chair. It’s a design icon that redefined how we sit.

Designed by Peter Opsvik and refined over more than 40 years, the HÅG Capisco collection is built around one simple idea: movement is essential. Inspired by the dynamic posture of horseback riders, the iconic saddle seat encourages active sitting, open hip angles, and constant variation, whether you sit low, perch high, or work almost standing.

What is the difference between the HAG Capisco models?

The Capisco 8106 and 8107 feature a fully upholstered seat and backrest, offering a softer, more premium feel. The Capisco Puls 8010 and 8020, by contrast, have a plastic backrest with a partially upholstered seat, making them a lighter and more minimalist option.

Why HÅG Capisco?

 HÅG Capisco

From the fully upholstered HÅG Capisco 8106 and 8107, designed for long working days and maximum comfort, to the lighter, more minimalist HÅG Capisco Puls 8010 and 8020, ideal for home offices, meeting rooms, and flexible workspaces, every Capisco chair shares the same DNA: balance, freedom of movement, and timeless Scandinavian design.

Highly adjustable, endlessly configurable, and engineered to last, the HÅG Capisco adapts effortlessly to modern sit-stand desks and creative work environments. It fits as naturally in a home office as it does in architect studios, collaboration spaces, or professional offices worldwide.

Sustainability is built in. The HÅG Capisco is made largely from recycled materials, designed for disassembly, and certified by leading environmental standards—including the Nordic Swan Ecolabel.

This is seating that moves with you.

This is the HÅG Capisco.
