Peter Opsvik challenged the idea of a single correct sitting posture long before sedentary work became widely recognized as a concern. His work consistently prioritized movement, awareness and freedom over fixed support.
Globe Concept continues this design philosophy to encourage subtle shifts, open hip angles and active engagement while seated – supporting the body’s natural need for variation.
These micro-movements contribute to circulation, focus and sustained wellbeing throughout the day.
There is no single correct sitting posture – the best posture is always the next one.
Movement, variation, and elevated sitting enable balance and continuous micro-movement.
Globe Concept carries Opsvik’s philosophy into flexible, modern spaces.
The body is designed to move, even while seated, and variation supports sustained productivity.
Active foot engagement allows natural balance, posture shifts, and continuous micro-movements.
Ergonomics connects health, wellbeing, and performance.
Freedom to move keeps the body engaged instead of locked into a fixed position even when seated.
Seating should support mobility.
Open hip angles and active feet encourage balance, presence, and continuous movement.
A clearly defined solution applicable for various environments.
Globe Tree is a compact, integrated workstation designed for active sitting.
Globe Two brings movement-based seating to table and collaborative environments.
Globe Concept is built to support environments where people shift between tasks, durations and postures. It adapts naturally to:
Individual focused work
Collaborative settings
Educational environments
