Vitra


The business of style

Enriching the everyday

The story of Vitra is a tale as old as time. A family gets together with the hope of making something extraordinary. And in doing so, change the look and feel of our lives forever. 

It’s the reason why even if you don’t know their names, you will recognise their designs. Who, after all, could miss the cantilevered colourful Panton chair? A statuesque statement of sinuosity and style? Or else the inimitable Eames Lounge Chair, which is part of the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York, in Bill Gates’s house, and made cameos on James Bond and the sitcom Frasier.

But no matter which style you favour, it’s worth remembering that Vitra are also much more than the sum of their parts. A company that has successfully evaded the trappings of time, while trailblazing new avenues for sustainability and creativity.

Where work becomes play

One of the advantages of being a cultural tastemaker is that you can see trends coming on the horizon. It explains why, long before the world made it a necessity, the talented team at Vitra were working on a ream of hardworking home office designs.

It began, as most good things do, in the mid-century, with the launch of the iconic Eames Aluminium collection. Today, the collection has evolved to include a wide range of contemporary imaginings, from Konstantin Grcic's Rookie Chair to the height-adjustable Tyde 2 table.

A colourful legacy

A lot of companies tend to shy away from using colour. Monochrome neutrals are, after all, a safe choice. Anonymous, to a certain extent. And therefore applicable anywhere.

Not Vitra. Together with iconic designers like Charles & Ray Eames and Hella Jongerius, they've pioneered a new spectrum of style. One that's bold, confident and emotionally empowering.

When it comes to making a difference, we know that actions speak louder than words.

It’s why at Vitra, the notion of sustainability and equity, be it through the gender pay gap or emissions, are at the top of the agenda.

The goals are clear.

Be a net positive company based on all the indicators of its ecological footprint by 2030.

Develop products that are as long-lasting as possible — and fully recycle at the end of their lifetime.

And continue to ensure that women are equally represented in management positions.
