Higher Ground Furniture creates versatile seating that promotes an active lifestyle. Their signature piece, the Higher Ground chair, is cut from sustainably sourced pine plywood and finished with cushions made from organic fabrics and natural latex. With its minimalist, tool-free design, it takes under a minute to assemble and adapts to different sitting angles for comfort and mobility.
Inspired by modern minimalism and ancient Japanese joinery, each component fits together without adhesives or excess hardware. The chair’s forward tilt angle encourages better posture and circulation, so you feel more engaged throughout your day.
• Supports various sitting postures

Based in Asheville, North Carolina, the business draws inspiration from a community that values art, creativity, and healthy living.
Founder Ben Campbell broke his back in a cycling accident, which sparked his pursuit of active sitting solutions. He joined forces with co-founder and engineer Baird Whelan to refine the design, while product marketer and therapist Tammy Hendrix brought fresh insights for women’s and children’s seating needs.
