Passengers control the depth of their recline and firmness of the seat by adjusting an internal framework, reducing the tension of the fabric as needed, while the three seat module remains static. *Image: Seymourpowell*

"One of the needs we identified was people's desire to be in control over their personal space—simple [proxemics](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proxemics)," says Jeremy White, Seymourpowell's head of transport. "The fixed seat architecture and visual cues indicate that the back of the seat belongs to the person facing it." *Image: Seymourpowell*

Adjustments will only be possible in between flights and made exclusively by the flight crew, so travelers needn't fear that an unscrupulous seatmate will try to bogart their space. *Image: Seymourpowell*
