The pony® seat-table hybrid design by [Relvāokellermann](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/steno-sitandstand-work-desk) for gumpo immediately grabs attention. It enables flexible, casual seating in both public and private settings. Designed for hybrid work environments, it combines a [compact upholstered stool](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ishi-stool) with an attached rotating tabletop. The unit runs on castors and can swivel to adapt to spontaneous collaboration, brainstorming sessions, or relaxed solo work.

It is crafted almost entirely from wood with all visible parts finished in a single coating, pony® features a laminated shell and wooden central column for a unified aesthetic. It’s offered in multiple eco-friendly fabric finishes, and movements feel light and responsive. Designed as a mobile workstation lounge piece, this seat-table hybrid blends comfort, mobility, and craftsmanship into a sculptural yet functional form that quietly elevates creative zones.
