If you were looking for ways to both strengthen and increase stability of the musculature of the spine one could perform various exercises, but there is only one solution that doesn't require any kind of exercise - active sitting on SpinaliS chairs. Strengthen your core muscles while sitting!
SpinaliS Spider Series Chair is one of the most popular models in Canada:
www.spinalis-chairs.ca/spinalis-chairs/spider/
Any type of prolonged poor posture will, over time, substantially increase the risk of developing back pain. Examples include slouching over a computer keyboard, driving hunched over the steering wheel, lifting improperly. SpinaliS chairs will take care of your bad posture and will improve it very fast.

Core stability refers to a person's ability to stabilise their core. Stability, in this context, should be considered as an ability to control the position and movement of the core. Thus, if a person has greater core stability, they have a greater level of control over the position and movement of this area of their body. The body's core is frequently involved in aiding other movements of the body, such as the limbs, and it is considered that by improving core stability a person's ability to perform these other movements may also be improved i.e. core stability training may help improve someone's running ability. The bodies core region is sometimes referred to as the torso or the trunk, although there are some differences in the muscles identified as constituting them. The major muscles involved in core stability include the pelvic floor muscles, transversus abdominis, multifidus, internal and external obliques, rectus abdominis, erector spinae (sacrospinalis) especially the longissimus thoracis, and the diaphragm. The minor muscles involved include the latissimus dorsi, gluteus maximus, and trapezius. Notably, breathing, including the action of the diaphragm, can significantly influence the posture and movement of the core; this is especially apparent in regard to extreme ranges of inhalation and exhalation. On this basis, how a person is breathing may influence their ability to control their core.
Some researchers have argued that the generation of intra-abdominal pressure, caused by the activation of the core muscles and especially the transversus abdominis, may serve to lend support to the lumbar spine.
Typically, the core is associated with the body's center of gravity, which is over the region of the second sacral vertebrae groups and stability is associated with isometric or static strength. In addition, it is the lumbar spine that is primarily responsible for posture and stability thus providing the strength needed for the stability especially utilized in dynamic sports.

Thank you for all views and comments. They are much appreciated.
Somewhere I’ve read that banks employed Classical detailing in the façade to impart the sense of stability and permanence. The Bank of LaCrosse (Mecklenburg County, Virginia) is no exception, a small town bank exhibiting the Classical features that seemed standard for early banks. I have no date for the structure but guess before 1925; I also don’t know the building material. The façade is framed by four pilasters instead of columns, one at each corner and the remaining two on either side of the entrance. The stylized capitals are elongated and grooved. Above the overhang are recessed panels, functioning as extensions of the pilasters. The overhang has prominent rectangular brackets which resemble large dentil. Below that at each corner is a circular floral design and the name of the bank. A broken pediment is above the entrance with an urn (in funerary sculpture it symbolized immortality, hence permanence of the institution). There's an ornamental swag pattern in the panel between the two large brackets, which support the pediment, and below each bracket are long narrow vertical panels. The doorway itself consists of narrow grooves. The windows are fixed and are enclosed within a large panel between the pilasters in a set pattern (except for the window above the entrance): the second-story windows are arched and have recessed areas, simulating a surround with a bracket form as the keystone; the first story windows are to either side of the entrance; between the stories is a recessed ornamented rectangular panel and below the first-story windows the panel is raised instead of recessed.
