How to use

Sitting is the new inactivity – the HedgeHock turns this saying on its head. Because the 49 individually sprung wooden blocks yield and re-align with every shift in weight, the body remains in constant micro-movement while sitting. This activates the deep muscles, promotes blood circulation, and gradually trains an upright, healthy sitting posture – without actively having to think about it. Those who sit for long periods at a desk, travel frequently, or struggle with back or hip problems after hours in an office chair will find an unexpected solution in the HedgeHock: It looks like a design object and acts like a silent workout.

Here's how you can use the HedgeHock:

Home office & office: As an alternative to an office chair – active, back-friendly sitting throughout the day
Creative work & relaxation: As flexible seating that is used daily even without training
Physiotherapy & rehabilitation: Targeted training of deep muscles and stabilization of posture
Yoga & meditation: Stable, comfortable sitting base for meditation sessions

Your Hedgehock is available in these types of wood

Wood types

The NOHRD HedgeHock is made in Germany and has 49 individually sprung seat blocks of solid wood. The body is finished with high-quality real wood veneer. The stool comes in oak, cherry and walnut, and in the Shadow, Club and Vintage finishes.

Oak

Oak stands out with its bold grain and warm tone. It gives the Hedgehock a strong look full of character.

Cherry

Cherry stands out with its warm, slightly reddish tone. The fine grain looks elegant and brings a pleasant warmth to the whole piece.

Walnut

European walnut impresses with its dark, refined tone and elegant grain. For a particularly premium look with plenty of contrast.

Club

The Club look uses beech. It is plain and light, and its hard, dense surface takes stain beautifully.

Vintage

For the Vintage look the oak is stained a brownish tone. The visible grain gives it a rustic charm.

Shadow

For the Shadow look the wood is stained black. The stain brings out the surface texture strongly without hiding the grain.
