The Hokki is an innovative seating concept designed for flexible learning, by VS.

The Hokki stool is a unique product and has been designed purely as flexible learning aid for the classroom and other learning environments. Traditionally, the general view was that educational seating should remain rigid, without any form for free movement. Fidgeting on static chairs was typically frowned upon in the teaching communities of the past.

Contrary to popular belief, stillness of the body for long periods of time inhibits concentration and focus during the learning process. Research has shown that our minds are more active if our bodies are allowed to flex and fidget. This concept really does fly in the face of past convention, but makes total sense when applied to more modern teaching and learning methods. Differentiated teaching techniques help to provide a more varied, accessible learning situation for all - so why shouldn't the learning environment, particlarly seating, play a major role in allowing some physical flexibility, as a complimentary aid?

The convex design of the base makes the Hokki movable in all directions. The carcass is made from polypropylene and is highly stable, but also very light. The soft base padding prevents slipping on hard, polished floors but facilitates a wide range of movement whilst seated. The Hokki is a highly durable product, able to withstand day-to-day usage over very long periods of time.

Not just for the classroom. The Hokki is adaptable for a variety of applications.

Although ideally suited to the classroom, the Hokki can also be used in a variety of other applications. It's also perfect for break-out areas, informal meeting rooms, recreational and admin areas. In fact, it can be used just about anywhere as a complimentary alternative to more traditional seating.
