A refined executive and boardroom chair by Wilkhahn, designed with a strong focus on simplicity, comfort, and timeless form. The Modus range is known for its clean lines and high-quality construction, making it a staple in premium office and meeting environments.
This is the executive swivel version, featuring a 5-star aluminium base with castors, offering greater flexibility and everyday usability compared to the standard fixed conference models. While the classic Modus chairs are often seen in static boardroom settings, this variant allows for movement and adjustability, making it better suited for active workspaces or home offices.
Finished in supple black leather, with integrated armrests and a gently contoured seat, it delivers a comfortable and supportive sitting experience without compromising on aesthetics.
A well-built, design-led piece that offers a more elevated alternative to standard office seating.

Design Story
Founded in 1907 near Hanover, Wilkhahn began as a traditional furniture manufacturer before evolving into a pioneer of contemporary workplace design. In the decades following World War II, the company embraced modernism and developed a philosophy centered around functionality, movement, and long term quality.
Wilkhahn became especially influential through its focus on ergonomics and dynamic sitting. Rather than designing static office chairs, the company explored how furniture could support natural movement and improve wellbeing during long hours of work. This approach led to innovations like the Wilkhahn ON Chair, whose three dimensional movement system helped redefine modern ergonomic seating.
Unlike many corporate furniture brands, Wilkhahn placed equal importance on engineering and visual restraint. Its furniture often features clean architectural lines, premium materials, and subtle detailing that reflects a distinctly German approach to design: precise, intelligent, and understated.
Today, Wilkhahn furniture is found in executive offices, creative workspaces, and institutions around the world. The brand remains closely associated with the evolution of the modern workplace, where comfort, movement, and design are increasingly seen as inseparable.
