The Stapelstein® Base is the powerful foundation of our Dynamic Sitting System. Its curved underside inspires gentle 360° micro-movements, activates core muscles, and promotes a natural body feeling – all without screws or technology. Made from ultra-light, 100% recyclable EPP, it combines minimalist Bauhaus design with maximum load capacity up to 120 kg. Whether solo as a children's stool, combined with Board or Originals: Base grows stackable with every stage of life, fits into any interior, and makes movement an intuitive part of everyday life.
Why is dynamic sitting important?
Children sit a lot today – but often too still.
The Base brings movement back into everyday life – naturally, through small, playful micro-movements while sitting.
This strengthens posture, attention, and self-regulation – scientifically proven, practically implemented.
More health
The curved Base activates 360° micro-movements. Studies show: Dynamic sitting reduces intervertebral disc pressure & prevents back pain.
More focus
Just a few centimeters of rocking increase concentration and keep the brain more alert than rigid sitting.
Self-regulation & fun
Rhythmic movements help reduce nervousness and organize sensory perception – ideal for school, home office & therapy.
Sitting ≠ Being still
Children spend today > 8 hours daily sitting – often motionless. Rigidly staying in one position strains the spine, metabolism & attention.

How the modular system works
The Stapelstein® Base transforms any seat into a space for movement: its curved underside promotes 360° micro-movements, strengthens the back and balance, while the iconic, ultra-light EPP design supports up to 120 kg. Modularly combinable with Board and Originals, it grows with you from kindergarten to the home office – sustainably made in Germany and 100% recyclable. Its stackable format saves space and makes movement intuitively accessible to everyone at any time.

2. Place on top
Simply click the Board into place – perfectly fitted and slip-resistant. This creates your Dynamic small: rocking & rotating function for active sitting at the desk.
3. Stack
Stack Originals in between to adjust the seat height from 27 to 38 or 46 cm. Dynamic all grows with you – from child to home office, supports up to 120 kg.
