What started back in 2012 as a one–man show has now, in little more than a decade, become an established European design brand: Freifrau Manufaktur. Operating from Lemgo, a small town in Westphalia, Germany, this exclusive manufacturer of seating furniture is characterised by the highest possible levels of comfort, lovingly–rendered details, and exacting quality and sustainability standards. Working with big–name designers and those at the start of their careers alike, since it was founded, Freifrau has built up a portfolio of timeless chairs, armchairs, and settees, wide–ranging and yet all with a unifying emphasis on individual comfort, total versatility, and undeniable individuality.

Freifrau presents a new chair designed by the award–winning Berlin–based designer Hanne Willmann. The “Ada” chair is showcased in a curated setting that brings together aesthetic contrasts. In a so called mirrored garden, reflection and the present merge. Ada’s rounded form meets clean geometry. The modular sofa by Hoffmann Khaleyss Design, which has reimagined the Marie chair collection as a sofa, also fits perfectly into this setting.

But, on the other hand, they wrap themselves around you making you feel safe and secure. This vision takes shape the brands workshop where Bretz strides forth with a bold pioneering spirit while drawing on over a hundred years of German upholstery tradition. Born out of a passion for the unexpected coupled with sophisticated production techniques, Bretz creates exceptional modular and multifunctional concepts. Only when sofa, bed, armchair or accessory has been honed right down to the last detail, will they meet our exacting standards.
