A Zurich Design Shop With Free Swiss Delivery

Mooris is an online design furniture and lifestyle store from Zurich. Its About page says three friends, Lea Montini, Frank Urech and Claudio Beffa, founded the shop in 2012 in Zürich to bring design fans and furniture lovers selected products in a new, personal and advisory way. What started, in the company's words, as a small corner shop on Zurlindenstrasse has grown into a team of around 50 people, who call themselves "Moorisianer," covering logistics, marketing, copywriting, photography, customer service, styling, purchasing, software development and interior advice. The site marks its 10 Jahre Mooris anniversary with a look back at that decade.

Where it sells is spelled out clearly. Prices are shown in Swiss francs (CHF), and the homepage promises free delivery ("Kostenlose Lieferung") within Switzerland, carried out by Mooris's own delivery staff rather than a parcel service, which the shop says protects the furniture and allows better customer service. The asterisk on that promise points to conditions on the shipping page. Mooris can be reached online, through its app, and in its showroom in Zurich. The site is in German, with English and French versions, and it does not say that it delivers outside Switzerland.

Office Chairs Inside a Full Home Catalog

Mooris is a design furniture shop first, and office seating is one section of a very broad catalog. The Möbel menu lists a Stuhl (chair) group with Hocker, Barstuhl, Armlehnstuhl, Freischwinger, Holzstuhl, Kunststoff & Metallstuhl, Polsterstuhl and Bürostuhl, the office chair section that matters for a home office. The same menu has a Tisch (table) group with a Bürotisch (office desk), Sekretär and Tischgestell, a Rollkorpus (rolling pedestal) under storage, and an accessories section called Büro Accessoire with organizers, stationery, wastepaper baskets, pinboards, writing tools and magazine holders. For someone furnishing a study in a flat, that means the desk, chair, pedestal and small office pieces can all be bought in one order.

Outside the office, the catalog covers shelving, lighting (ceiling, pendant, floor, table, wall and reading lights), beds and mattresses, wardrobes and sideboards, sofas and daybeds, armchairs and lounge chairs, side and coffee tables, rugs, entryway furniture, garden furniture, children's furniture and textiles, and tableware. A "sofort lieferbare Artikel finden" link in the header filters the range down to items in stock and ready to ship.

What a Product Page Shows

The site's "Daily" deals show how Mooris presents a product, and one example is a Carl Hansen & Søn dining set: the CH337 table with 6 upholstered CH33P chairs, marked -12 % for a limited time. The page lists the brand, the designer (Hans J. Wegner), the materials (solid beech, oak, walnut or mahogany for the table, beech or oak with leather upholstery for the chairs), and full dimensions. The chair is given as 55 cm wide, 48 cm deep and 74 cm high with a seat height of 44 cm, and the table as 140 cm by 115 cm by 72 cm, with an optional 60 cm extension leaf. The leather is described as full-grain, open-pored aniline. The page also offers an assembly manual as a PDF.

The same page shows the buying terms that apply on the shop. It lists free delivery "frei Bordsteinkante," meaning to the curb, an extra 2 % discount for payment in advance, a return right ("Rückgaberecht"), and two availability lines: ready to ship for the versions in stock and 10 - 12 Wochen for other finishes. Buyers of a chair from the Bürostuhl section should expect the same layout, with dimensions and materials on the product page, though the homepage itself does not list office chair models or their adjustments.

At the time, the homepage's daily feed was dominated by Carl Hansen & Søn pieces, many already sold out: the CH24 Wishbone Chair, the CH23 and CH26 chairs from Wegner's Five Masterpieces, the CH22 and CH290 lounge chairs, and lights such as the Tulip pendant and the Bubi table lamp. The product page describes Carl Hansen & Søn as a company that has stood for Danish design history for more than 100 years.

Showroom and Consultation

Advice is a large part of the Mooris pitch. The homepage offers personal consultation "per Videoanruf, Chat, Telefon oder vor Ort im Mooris Studio," by video call, chat, phone or in person at the studio. The Studio Zürich sits just behind Albisriederplatz in Zurich's Kreis 3, and the Studios page invites visitors to feel fabrics, try sitting and lying on the furniture, and ask questions, with or without a floor plan. The About page describes the showroom as the company's home for content production and ideas as well as a place to get honest advice on a new sofa, a whole home or an interior project.

For customers who cannot come in, the online consultation page explains the process. The customer books a time slot, fills in their details and uploads floor plans or photos of their current home, and a Mooris adviser sends a link for a video session. Customers who would rather not be seen on camera can talk by microphone only. The page pitches this at people who live in a remote valley, have a busy schedule or simply do not want to visit a showroom.

Offers and Payment

At the time, the site ran an autumn promotion with up to 17% off orders from CHF 490 using the code FALLINLOVE, excluding special brands, and newsletter subscribers get a 10 % welcome discount. The footer links to pages on payment, shipping, showrooms, the company, and the terms and conditions (AGB), and there is a wishlist and a Mooris Community area.

Who This Suits

Mooris suits buyers in Switzerland who want their home office to look like part of a designed room rather than a separate workstation, and who value being able to sit in pieces at a Zurich showroom or get styling advice by video. Free delivery by Mooris's own couriers is a real plus for bulky furniture. It is a less obvious first stop for someone who wants a heavily adjustable ergonomic task chair with published adjustment ranges, because the site's strength is its design catalog, and the homepage does not single out ergonomic office chair models. Buyers outside Switzerland will find no delivery option published on the site.
