If it is placed too far back, the user will feel like they are falling backward. The Tangent Point and Tip-Stops

Mount the backrest supports at a comfortable 15-degree backward lean from the seat frame. Extend one side of the backrest higher than the other to lean into the abstract, asymmetrical aesthetic. Step 4: Sculpting the Abstract Armrests
