ABOUT THE BRAND
Vitra — Swiss precision, design heritage
Founded in Switzerland in 1950, Vitra has long been the European custodian of great design — producing the work of Charles and Ray Eames, George Nelson, and Antonio Citterio, and building one of the most celebrated design campuses in the world. Its furniture is held to an exacting standard of craftsmanship that reflects its Swiss roots.
Vitra office chairs combine that design sensibility with rigorous engineering: refined, durable, and unmistakably European in their restraint. They are chosen by those who want their workspace to reflect a deeper appreciation of design — without compromising on the ergonomics that a full working day demands.
