I have always hated sitting.

Most chairs ask us to be still. They do not just support the body; they correct it. The classroom chair, the corporate throne, the museum bench, all carry the same silent command: sit properly, remain upright, stay in place. Instructional spaces are built on this premise: stillness is a prerequisite for learning and productivity. The chair often embodies this cultural ideal, somewhere between modernist fetish and institutional punishment. Design becomes an instrument of discipline, and stability becomes a condition for thinking. But for some of us, holding a single posture isn’t focus. It’s resistance.
