Like, we live on so much space but require furniture to be able to use it. I started sitting on the floor for large parts of the day last year and it's been really nice. Also helps with general mobility!

I bought a small portable table for my living room, handmade from Etsy. You can fold it. I wouldn't use it as a working desk fully as the width is a bit too small (can't get my legs under it when crossed), but for reading, eating, studying it works great. Unfortunately there seems to be quite a lack of "low tables" in the west compared to Asia... I wish I had more options.

There really isn't much available for people who don't want a chair/desk combination in North America. Feels a bit oppressive but maybe that's my perspective since school was nothing but attention based torture for me.
