Apart from three visions of designing in the future, which Vitra presented at Orgatec, reeditions of their classics constituted another strong part of their stand. Projects from the 50s or 60s, designed by Charles and Ray Eames among others not only stood the test of time but have also been adjusted to modern requirements (ergonomic, technological and with respect to colour).
Eames table
Classic form, well-thought construction and quality. A project from 1964 aided communication, teamwork and interaction in offices, homes and public spaces for decades. It meets modern demands by means of intelligent power supply and data transmission solutions, as well as wireless charging. Soon auxiliary tables will be added to the collection.
Iconic chairs
Aluminium Chair (1958) and Soft Pad Group (1969) are design icons of the XX century. Both models share a similar shape and construction but have a different finish: smooth, aluminum profiles or sewn in “pillows”. In Cologne for the first time in history Vitra presented completely black versions (available from February 2019).
