The Smart Seat That Brings Motion and Meaning to Your Workspace

As the demand for adventurous interior design grows, designers and artists are outfitting spaces with unorthodox wares. Enter the cactus chair. It’s a succulent take on the classic task chair — and a promising solution for our sedentary world.

I love my cactus chair because it doesn’t let me sit still. I fidget, stand up, and even walk around — and that makes me feel like I’m getting a lot more done. Sometimes I even use my cactus chair during my lunch break so I can stay energized and productive. Work is so much more fun when I’m using a cactus chair.

Unlike other task chairs, the cactus chair is a tribute to our pointed pals. The cactus is a strange and beautiful species native to arid regions. They’re also one of the few plants that photosynthesize in the dark. Although it may look unwelcoming, the chair is snuggly soft. Not only that, but it’s also a superb listener.

The cactus chair loves to hear you prattle on about your day. While your family and friends may have given up after hearing your umpteenth recounting of how you helped old Mrs. Johnson find her cat, your cactus chair knows you care — and even if you don’t, it will never tell.

The cactus chair came into being because a famous — albeit nameless — artist longed for a revolutionary yet utilitarian seat. The Artist rested on this chair for hours, and when The Artist got up, they had transcendent insights. With the air of a wise professor, the cactus chair will help you eloquently answer the question, why are we here?

When I’m using a cactus chair, I think about what it would be like to be root-bound. I ponder what plants would feel if they had emotions. Sitting in my chair, I had a revelation. It helped me feel hope for my future and love for humanity because I realized everyone is the same in the end. If you’re looking for a more meaningful and somewhat more prickly way to spend your sitting hours, consider adopting a cactus chair into your life.
