Introduction

This HEP proposes purchasing ergonomic office chairs for the hackerspace to improve comfort and productivity during long working sessions, and to reach a sufficient number of chairs for hosting workshops.

Current seating options are not ideal for prolonged use, especially for:

• programming sessions
• workshops and events

Product

The proposed product is:

• Seduna Skagen Plus Çalışma Sandalyesi / Ofis Koltuğu
• Product Link

Quantity

• Purchasing 5 units would be a good option.

Why this chair?

I haven’t personally tested this chair, so I can’t strongly vouch for it. However, based on user reviews, it seems to offer good price/performance. If you have alternative suggestions, feel free to share them in the comments.
Reviews

Alternatives Considered

• Cheaper office chairs → insufficient ergonomics
• Gaming chairs → bulky, high price and not suitable for workshop environment but more comfortable
• Second-hand options → inconsistent quality, billing difficulties

Repository convention (per hep-0001.md) is to name HEP documents hep-XXXX.md. This file is added as hep-0010 without the .md extension, which may break links/tools that expect the documented naming pattern.

The pledging table rows are prefixed with || which won’t render as a proper Markdown table (compare hep-0004.md / hep-0006.md which use | ... |). Please fix the table formatting so it displays correctly.
