Commercially available chairs in Star Trek

That's quite a comprenensive list. I like that some of the Lower Decks designers include some of these, too! A nice touch of detail.

I cannot fathom how someone has the attention to analyze these shows to note the chairs being used. Frankly, the Stokke Globe Garden is so far in the background of the Lower Decks screen capture that I can't understand how someone picked up on it.

For added aviation realism, the shuttle seats should have been worn and stained and covered by fake sheepskin seat covers.

At least the set designers had style! Some nice designs there, for sure! If only someine would have thought of, I don't know, seat belts...

Someone in the props department had a massive furniture budget. I love it.

It reminds me how the "chair" is one of those objects supposedly so hard to classify for things like machines, a little easier for humans. Although may of these designs cause even my brain to struggle with, "Is that a chair?" Some reminded me of the Wood Allen bit from Sleeper:

Random statement but no arm rests on many of those. My arms awkwardly dangle
