For the "Organic Design in Home Furnishings" competition organised by the Museum of Modern Art in New York in 1941, Charles Eames and Eero Saarinen created the Organic Chair collection. This chair was ahead of its time in 1940, and was not able to be produced on a large scale until 1950, by Vitra. Organic armchairs are particularly comfortable thanks to their organically shaped shells, which follow the shape of the body and provide ideal seating for winter days reading by the fireplace ... the Organic Chair reading armchair allows you to adopt a low position, tilted backwards.
Founded in 1950 by Willi and Erika Fehlbaum, Vitra is an iconic brand of Swiss designer furniture, renowned for its iconic chairs, exceptional armchairs, and contemporary tables. Located near Basel, Switzerland, the company has established itself as a key player in international design through collaborations with renowned designers such as Charles & Ray Eames, Verner Panton, Antonio Citterio, Alexander Girard, and the Bouroullec brothers.
