Sitting becomes a movement.
VLUV is the stylish alternative way of ergonomic sitting. It is based on one of the simplest geometrical shapes.
All VLUVs are light as air and comfortable like a cushioned chair. You can actively sit on it, rock and roll around or work out.
Our products? Your products.
Select your VLUV from many different materials, fabrics, colours, and sizes.
Simply beautiful? Too simple for us.
The appeal of our VLUVs is not only based on its minimalist, Scandinavian design, but mainly on meaningful, German design-patented details. Only these make a beautiful ball a coherent seating concept

Ergonomic, active sitting requires different seat heights. Depending on body height and area of application we recommend different VLUV ball sizes. Find the size that fits you and serves your needs:
70–75 cm
For people 180–200 cm tall. We recommend using a height-adjustable table to fit the legs comfortably under the table.
60–65 cm
For people 155–180 cm tall. Recommended for standard tables with a height of ca. 74 cm, even for taller body heights.
50–55 cm
Perfect for schoolchildren and adults 135–155 cm tall. We recommend using a height-adjustable table.
We're just around the corner.

Who is behind VLUV? We are.
About us.
The company was founded in 2009. Kristof Hock, inventor and owner, started at home at the living room table. An old moped shed served as a production facility and warehouse at the same time. Today, our team has grown to seven employees and the number is rising. Our company headquarters, with an extensive office and storage space, is idyllically located next to a river in a centuries-old wool spinning mill, 40 km east of Cologne. Here we develop, design, and distribute our stylish products for ergonomics, exercise, and sport.
Our Values.
HOCK Design is an owner-managed brand-name company. We pay as much attention to the importance of aesthetics, quality, and innovation like we do to a close and relaxed working environment. We like what we do. We ensure that we find the most sustainable detailed solutions in all areas. Our manufacturers are strictly selected according to quality, environmental, and social standards, such as ISO or BSCI certification.
The Idea.
Healthy sitting means active sitting. That began about 30 years ago with the use of PVC gymnastic balls in many offices. But those had disadvantages. They rolled away, were sticky, unwieldy, and unattractive. With VLUV, we have been revolutionizing the market since the beginning of 2015, turning a rubber ball into comfortable seating furniture and a minimalist design object.
