FAQ
Comfort and construction
Is the ida chair soft like a beanbag?
No. If you are looking for something you completely disappear into, this is not that chair.
The IDA chair offers resistance and comfort at the same time. You sink in enough to relax, but the chair keeps its shape and presence.
Does it stay supportive over time?
Yes. Wool is naturally resilient. With normal use and occasional fluffing, the structure remains supportive. There is no hidden foam that slowly collapses.
Why did you design it without foam?
Foam ages quickly, cannot be properly repaired, and is difficult to recycle.
The IDA chair is built around material intelligence instead. Comfort is created through form, folding and placement.
Is it warm or itchy?
It is warm and tactile, not itchy. The upholstery options are selected for skin contact. As with all natural materials, the experience is richer than synthetic alternatives.
Can i sit in different positions?
Yes. The chair supports multiple postures, from upright reading to relaxed lounging. The folding method creates natural zones that adapt to how you sit. The wider and deeper the seat, the more passive and reclined the posture becomes, allowing the body to gradually let go.
The chair looks folded. can it be unfolded?
No. The fold is structural and essential to the comfort.
To create the right seating support, the wool needs to be kept under tension, similar to a tufted futon mattress. The folded form creates that tension. If the chair were unfolded, the wool would lose its resistance and become too soft to sit or lie on comfortably.
How heavy is the chair?
It is substantial and grounded. One person can reposition it, but it is not lightweight.
What materials are used?
The filling is wool. The cover depends on the selected upholstery.
The construction is frameless and avoids hidden foam based structures.
Will it look exactly like the photos?
It will match the design, but not every piece is identical. Subtle variation is part of working with natural materials and hand finishing.
If you expect industrial sameness, this may not be the right choice.
Ordering and ownership
Is the IDA Chair made to order?
Yes. Each piece is made to order. This keeps waste low and allows you to choose materials that fit your interior and way of living.
What is the lead time?
The standard lead time is usually 6 to 10 weeks. Custom materials or finishes can affect timing.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes. We ship worldwide. Shipping options and costs depend on the destination and the size of the product.
Can I order material samples?
Yes. Samples allow you to experience texture and tone in your own light. Natural materials can appear different throughout the day.
Can I change or cancel my order?
Because each piece is made to order, flexibility decreases once production starts.
Free cancellation is possible within five working days after order confirmation. After that, changes or cancellations may involve costs depending on production status. Full details are outlined in the general terms.
Can I return the chair?
Custom made pieces have limited return options. This is part of choosing a made to order product. Please consult the general terms for exact conditions.
What if my product arrives damaged?
Report any damage as soon as possible with clear photos of the packaging and product. We handle each case individually, with repair or replacement where appropriate.
Do you work with interior designers and architects?
Yes. Professional partners can request trade information and available technical files.
Do you also produce in large quantities?
Yes. We also produce in large quantities. Control, material selection, finishing and comfort remain leading. Scaling happens carefully and consciously, without compromising quality. There is an enormous surplus of wool, which allows us to scale responsibly and give lasting value to a material that is often treated as waste.
