With BERGMUND, Anders and the team studied new research to develop the shape of the seat and to find the optimal angle between the seat and the backrest. This resulted in several interesting insights about the human body – for example that the sit bones of all humans are actually very similar. "It’s true, regardless if someone is 1.85 metres tall or much shorter. So the bowl-shaped bottom of the seat was given a geometry that fits 99% of the world's population.”

Reviews
Brilliant bedroom and desk chairCarmelI am delighted with this high quality comfortable chair that is easy to assemble, so comfortable and looks really smart. i paired it with a grey cover which is lovely quality. I was looking for a bedroom chair to fit under the MICKE desk and I really hate having an office chair in the bedroom. This chair is the perfect height and gives great lumbar support - but tucks away neatly under the desk and looks great too. Five stars!
Bergmund ChairBarbaraBergmund Chair is ideal as a desk chair - comfortable yet practical
So much better than my Ingolf chairs!MarianneI have been wanting these for the past year, but couldnt get the covers I was looking for, still cant in dark grey, but I decided to go ahead with the chairs and get the darker brownish mid lenghth covers and I love them!
My only gripe as a 5ft3" person is that my feet dont touch the ground properly.
But love being able to wash and replace the covers, its a no brainer!
Very comfortable chairsMichaelSturdy chairs, easy-peasy to assemble. It's a little difficult to get the covers completely crinkle free, but after a few tries (no too tight & not too loose), it is possible. The great thing about the covers is if they get worn, stained or shabby, you can replace them for just €15

Story
Long dinners just got more comfortable
BERGMUND chair was created so that you can sit longer while enjoying nice dinners – without your legs starting to feel stiff or your back aching. To succeed, we dove into new research on the human body, which led to us developing a new technique to get a really comfortable seat.
Sitting may not seem like an active movement, but it actually involves everything from the body's bones and muscles to tendons, cartilage and joints. "So that you sit comfortably for longer, it’s important that the body enjoys the right support in the right place", explains material developer Anders Bergner.
Our key common trait – sit bones
Innovation paves a way for more comfort
The polyester in the seat’s padding and backrest comprises of small vertical fibres which provide better elasticity compared to fibres which are more entangled. Anders and his team then developed an innovative technique to further increase the seating comfort by shaping the seat’s padding. “It compares to making a waffle. The polyester fibres are fed into a special tool where the correct shape fixes in place.” After several years of development, Anders hopes that BERGMUND helps people both enjoy nice seating comfort and even better moments together. "When everyone around the table is sitting comfortably, they can relax and focus more on each other."
Designer thoughts
Designer thoughts
“When designing BERGMUND chairs, we wanted to create seating for the many people, any day of the year. And as life changes, so can the covers - to fit the season, a special occasion or your mood - take your pick from the various colours and lengths. The only thing that doesn’t change is the soft, cushiony comfort and the chamfered legs that allow the cover to fall smoothly over the frame. We hope these chairs allow you and your friends to relax and stay comfy a bit longer."
