Designed by Alberto Meda for Vitra, the Physix chair is an understated and lightweight office chair with a swivel and height-adjustable base. Its design offers exceptional comfort: a high-performance textile panel is stretched between two adjustable side bars. Its understated appearance combined with its technical performance make Physix a perfect addition to any office environment.
Born in Como, Alberto Meda took his engineering degree at Milan's Politecnico and was recruited in 1973, at the age of 28, as Technical Director of Kartell, where he experimented with polyurethane. Six years later, he was flying under his own steam, working for Alfa Romeo, JC Decaux, Legrand, Luceplan, Vitra and Alias. His collaboration with the latter began in 1984 with the development of Light Light, a chair weighing just 1 kg made from carbon fibre and epoxy resin. He went on to create numerous collections of outdoor furniture. Alberto Meda works actively with Vitra, particularly on office chairs, concentrating on the essentials: simple shapes that combine optimum comfort with intelligent technology to make well-being at work a priority.
