Kore Stool

Sore back? Stiff neck? Aching joints? You may be sitting in the wrong kind of chair.

We simply weren't designed to sit still all day, yet many of us do - at work, at home, in a studio or classroom, in front of a computer. Ordinary chairs and stools force our bodies into unnatural, static positions, resulting in long-lasting physical discomfort.

The Kore stool rocks and spins on a gently domed base, encouraging active sitting and exercising the back. Improve your sitting experience and enjoy the long-term effects of a healthier back and happier muscles.

Gently rounded ergonomic base allows you to move and flex without leaving your seat

Exercises back, legs, and abdominal area

Relieves sore muscles and stiff joints

Allows a wide range of movement at large desks or work areas

Provides both stability and flexibility
The Kore stool comes in three different upholstery choices (fabric, leather look, and vinyl) and is an ideal choice for office, classroom, studio, workshop, and manufacturing environments.

The Kore stool is used by students, artists, musicians, office workers, doctors, and anyone looking for a more enjoyable sitting experience!

Try replacing a traditional chair with a Kore stool - you'll feel the difference.


The Kore Stool rocks and spins on a gently domed base, encouraging active sitting and exercising the back muscles.

Handcrafted wooden versions of the stool are owned by musicians, craftsmen, writers, businessmen, and surgeons. A version with a hand-turned wooden base was selected for the Museum of Modern Art design store under the name Unistool. It was selected for the store by a participating architect in MOMA's exhibition The Un-Private House. The wooden version was sold through MOMA from 1999 through 2002, and the latest version, with a stamped-steel base, is currently available for purchase.

Repetitive motion injuries caused while sitting on a conventional chair at a desk or drafting table are common. Twisting to a computer terminal, down to a drawer or trash can, can so often be the cause of low back pain. This spinal torqueing is stressful to the posterior facet joints of the lumbar spine (which don't allow for much movement of this sort), and may cause pain and inflammation. This stool allows the body to easily move and turn as a whole, reducing that facet joint 'jamming' and spinal strain. Great idea!
