Muista is a new approach to a work-chair in the current computer era, when chairs have to not only support but keep our working bodies active and healthy. Muista's design offers interchangeable sitting positions, balance exercise and muscle stimulation—all ingredients needed for boosting creativity and health at work.

Muista is a uniquely designed saddle chair that provides a healthy sitting alternative to regular desk chairs. Two different, interchangeable sitting positions plus rocking function translates into health benefits so welcome in our current fidgeting renaissance: stronger core muscles, better balance, stress relieve, better concentration etc.
Sit still or fidget, sway and wiggle on Muista chair, both by sitting saddle-like and bench-like. If you get tired from saddle-like sitting, just switch to bench sitting. Activate different muscle groups by rocking forwards (saddle sitting position) or swinging sideways (bench sitting position).
Rocking on Muista chair has a calm and elegant choreography that lets you occasionally exercise at work. Muista can be used alongside regular or adjustable height desks—from corporate to home offices, from meeting rooms to dining rooms —anywhere people want to enrich their sitting with unrestricted movement.
Muista is produced out of traditional, long-serving materials used in furniture production—bent plywood, high quality wool fabric, PU foam.

Looks like a human pelvis' worst nightmare.
Why? :) actually, the saddle sitting position is quite backed by physical therapists as beneficial, and also – besides saddle, this chair has another interchangeable sitting position – convex bench, so you just switch if you feel your pelvis had enough of saddle!
