As Black Friday begins, we’re reminded why we started Cimmermann back in 2004 - from a shared belief in choosing pieces that are built to last. Our philosophy has always been simple: buy once, keep forever. Inspired by the timeless principles of modernist design, we’ve spent years curating our own home with furniture that tells a story pieces we’ve saved for, lived with, and loved for a lifetime.
Cimmermann is an extension of that idea. We call it The Slower Home, a home created with intention, filled only with things you truly value. It’s about moving away from fast, disposable trends and instead embracing craftsmanship, longevity, and meaning.
As a small, family-run business, we approach Black Friday differently. While we understand the need to compete with larger retailers, we remain true to our values. Every order placed helps us plant a tree in our Ecologi forest, and every piece we offer is designed to be repaired, reused, and enjoyed for generations.
So if you’re looking for your next “forever” piece perhaps a classic lounge chair crafted for the slower home explore our curated edit below.
