Alicia Kostanty’s bachelor's degree project from HDK-Valand, the LOTUS stool allows floor-based seating positions to be moved up to a more conventional seat height. The intention behind the project was to develop a more dynamic way of sitting than typical office chairs on the market. The stool supports a minimum of 8 primary seating positions, selected based on Kostanty’s research, with inspiration drawn from the physical dynamics of yoga.
Kostanty was represented with LOTUS in the Ex-Works 2022 exhibition at the Museum of Furniture Studies in 2022.
