ergonomic designs
Body-friendly product shapes
Ergonomic designs are products or systems engineered to fit the human body and its natural movements, reducing strain and increasing comfort during use.
The term appears most often with furniture, tools, and workspaces: an ergonomic keyboard, ergonomic office chairs.
Good ergonomic design accounts for posture, repetitive motion, and prolonged use—preventing injury rather than just adding comfort.
