Architectural Ease

Strong geometry softened by tufting — a balance of structure and comfort suited for contemporary interiors.

Grounded but Iconic

Low, wide proportions create a sculptural presence that reads more as installation than furniture.

Tufting as Framework

Tufting organizes volume, shaping upholstery into disciplined planes without excess ornament.

A Synthesis of References

Japanese futon culture, ’70s radical design, and postmodern cues distilled into a unified form.

Questions About The Nest Chair

How long until I receive my order?

The Nest Chair arrives approximately 6-10 Weeks from the day of order.

Our products take longer to arrive than most others on the internet. But there's a good reason why. Most of our pieces are made to order and ship directly from the source. We don’t keep warehouses or carry excess inventory. This is how we cut costs and pass thousands in savings back to you. But it also means you have to wait a bit longer.

What is your return policy

The Nest Chair can be returned Made-to-order, no returns accepted after receiving the order if the product is damaged or unusable.

Our products are made to order. So we cannot offer returns for changes in preference. But we always do what we can to make it right.

To be returned, products need to be completely unused and still in their original packaging.

How can I track my order?

The Nest Chair ships within 7 days of order placement.

Once your order has been shipped, you will receive an email with tracking details, allowing you to monitor its progress. Simply use the provided tracking information on our delivery partner’s website to stay updated on your shipment.

Judge us by our looks

Our packaging is safe, simple, and proudly no frills. We don't think it makes sense to pay for things you throw away immediately.

That's why the Nest Chair ships in the same protective packaging the manufacturer uses, covered in functional stickers and foreign stamps showing the journey it's been on.

We don't hide it and wear it as a badge of honor for the places our products have been and the people who made them.
