Description

Manufacturer Vitra

Design Charles & Ray Eames

 

The Aluminium Chair is one of the great furniture designs of the twentieth century. Charles and Ray Eames conceived and developed this chair in 1958 for the private residence of an art collector in Columbus, Indiana (USA). For its construction, the designer couple departed from the principle of the seat shell, instead stretching a panel of fabric or leather between two aluminium side members to create a taut but elastic seat. The chair adapts to the body of the sitter and is exceedingly comfortable.

The Aluminium Group includes several different models for use in homes, offices and home offices. Thanks to this wide range of models and a large selection of colours for fabric or leather upholstery, the perfect Aluminium Chair can be found for every environment.
