Read MoreTo our knowledge, TeeBeu is the first solid timber desk and stool design that combines to create an integrated sit-stand workstation. The clever-simplicity with our TeeBeu Sit-Stand Workstation lies in the dual-purpose design of the adjustable-height stool, and its integration with the desk on which the stool is placed for stand-working. The manual transition from sitting to stand-working is simple, takes just seconds, stimulates added movement and is good exercise for varying posture throughout the day.

Read MoreIn our research to inform the development of TeeBeu, we discovered that most standard desk and table heights that people work at in an office or at home are typically 73-75cm.

Our TeeBeu Sit-Stand Workstation has been designed and considered for people around these average heights, and that use a laptop.
