A chair that improves concentration and posture when sitting.

"Sitting is more dangerous than smoking, kills more people than HIV and is more treacherous than parachuting. We are sitting ourselves to death."

-James Levine

Every day we sit for around 10 hours a day. Whether on the way to work, at work or at home on the sofa. On conventional chairs, this happens in a very unhealthy way. The spine is not exercised, the brain is not supplied with enough blood and the back is crooked. The ELEPHANT CHAIR encourages active sitting thanks to its different chair legs. When working at a desk, the extra front legs allow you to tilt forwards to activate your core and the added back legs allow you to safely tilt backwards to stretch your back and relieve pressure on the spine. The result is a healthier sitting position and increased concentration.
