Vitra, Home Desk
George Nelson, 1958

As graceful as it is decorative: this home desk with its refined, lavishly produced base and understated colours is one of George Nelson's design classics. Originally conceived as a ladies' desk, today it has many uses as a small workstation at home.

Vitra, Occasional Table LTR
Charles Eames, Ray Eames, 1950

Charles and Ray Eames designed the LTR as a small, variable side table and even had several different versions of them in the Eames House. Even today there are many of these tables standing there, individually or in groups, decorated with objects from the Eames collection or simply acting as side table next to armchairs and sofas.

Vitra, Cork Family
Jasper Morrison, 2004

Three small friends, robustly built, stable, individual in character and lovable in appearance, that's the Cork Family. Whether as side-tables or as stools, the three different brothers benefit from the advantageous properties of the natural material: cork. It is comparatively light, enormously tough and has a pleasant soft feel.

Vitra, Ply-Chair
Jasper Morrison, 1989

"The main reason why Ply-Chair looks the way it does today is that I had to make it myself and the only tools available to me were an electric compass saw and a number of pieces of wood. I noticed a cushioning effect when I used only a thin sheet of plywood for the seat and bent the crossed strips underneath it. To a certain extent this compensated for the chair's other less comfortable qualities." (Jasper Morrison)

Vitra, Amoebe
Verner Panton, 1970 (Reedition 2004)

The Amoebe was originally dreamed up for Panton's famous Visiona installation. It is a marvellous example of close-to-the-floor lounge furniture and embodies the spirit of the early 1970s. In bright colours, the re-edition delivers even greater comfort thanks to its flexible backrest shell.

Vitra, 06
Maarten Van Severen, 2005

Revealing the same lack of compromise with regard to shape as the .05, the great comfort of the .06 becomes apparent only when it is used. The flexible integrated foam seat and back shell, with foam-coated compound springs in the back, provide a sensation of dynamic seating. The stainless steel tubular frame means the chair is ideally suited for outdoor use.

Vitra, Stool
Charles Eames and Ray Eames, 1960

In 1960 the Eames office was commissioned by Time Inc. to fit out three lobbies in the Rockefeller Center in New York. As well as complete interior fixtures and fittings the project included the comfortable Lobby Chairs and a series of solid walnut stools. These turned stools which (as Ray Eames originally intended) can also be used as occasional tables, have three different design details in their centre sections.

Vitra, Monopod
Jasper Morrison, 2008

Jasper Morrison’s Monopod is a sculptural peice, vaguely reminiscent of primordial stone or wooden objects. The Monopod stands sturdily, tapering with an elegant curve to a wedge-shaped backrest. As a small visitor armchair, the Monopod is a companion for sofas and larger armchairs, and in public areas thanks to its solidity can be used in lounges and reception areas. The structure of the armchair, with its plastic shell upholstered on the inside means that the Monopod retains its precise shape even if used for lengthier periods and is very comfortable.

Vitra, 05
Maarten Van Severen, 2004

The success story that is the cantilever-based chair is already almost 80 years old but .05 offers a design whose uncompromising shape and outstanding comfort surpass even those of the classic version of this chair - Mart Stam's 1926 cantilevered chair.

Vitra, LCW and DCW
Charles Eames, Ray Eames, 1946

Charles and Ray Eames spent many years experimenting with new processes for optimizing the way three-dimensionally moulded plywood fits the contours of the body. The result was the Plywood Group, with its moulded plywood seat, backrest and base. The organic shape and the wood's cosy warmth invite users to sit down and relax.

Vitra, Noguchi Coffee Table
Isamu Noguchi, 1944

Noguchi himself described Coffee Table as his best furniture design, no doubt because it is extremely reminiscent of his bronze and marble sculptures of the time, translating the latter's biomorphic formal language unadulterated into a piece of sculptural furniture: glass tabletop resting on two identical wooden elements placed at right angles.

Vitra, .03
Maarten van Severen, 1999

The aesthetic trademark of .03 is its clear simple lines — the quintessence of the concept "less is more". Only when the user sits down does he experience its great comfort. The soft seat and backrest shell made of integral foam support the body when sitting, together with the leaf springs integrated into the backrest.

Vitra, MVS Chair
Maarten Van Severen, 2000

Although MVS looks like a sculptural object at first glance, as soon as you use it you realize just how comfortable it is. The soft, elastic upholstery fits the body's contours, making it an extremely comfortable recliner. The frame construction makes it easy to shift from a sitting to a lying position.
