The Mariposa family of sofas, available in various sizes, are comfortable and inviting, yet with a modern flair. Their exceptional comfort stems from the softness of their upholstery and an ingenious adjustment mechanism that allows the backrest and side elements to be individually adjusted to different sitting or reclining positions.

In 1947, American designer George Nelson was commissioned to create a collection of clocks. After studying how people used clocks, Nelson concluded that time could be read by the relative position of the hands, making numbers unnecessary. Furthermore, since most people used wristwatches, he surmised that wall clocks had become purely decorative elements in interiors. These ideas formed the basis of their first collection of 14 pieces, which included wall clocks and small table clocks with a completely new style and were introduced to the market in 1949. Although all models shared a common characteristic – the absence of numbers – the diversity of shapes, colors, materials and designs could not have been greater.

This armchair is not just a museum piece: it is a seat created to be used, lived in and enjoyed every day.

Charles and Ray Eames transformed their home, the Eames House, into a kind of collage, a collection of diverse objects they brought back from their travels. For over fifty years, a wooden bird stood in the center of the living room, an American craft piece undoubtedly much appreciated by Charles and Ray, as it often appeared as a prop in their photographs.

The Organic Chair—a small, comfortable reading chair—was presented in 1940, in several versions, at the "Organic Design in Home Furnishings" competition organized by the Museum of Modern Art in New York. The sculptural forms of this design were ahead of their time, although at that time it could not be mass-produced because the appropriate production techniques did not yet exist. It wasn't until 1950 that it became possible to manufacture and market in large quantities curved seat shells with organic shapes, such as the well-known Plastic Armchair by Charles and Ray Eames or the Tulip Chair by Saarinen. There is a version of the Organic Chair with a wider and longer backrest and broader armrests, the Organic Highback chair. The Organic Conference version is also suitable for dining tables. The Organic Conference chair has a higher seat and a more upright back than the Organic Chair and Organic Highback, models designed for reading. This exceptionally comfortable chair is ideal as a dining chair or for use in meeting rooms.

The Aluminium Chair is one of the great furniture designs of the 20th century. Charles and Ray Eames originally designed it in 1958 for the private residence of an art collector in Columbus, Indiana (USA). For its construction, the design duo departed from the traditional shell-style seat, opting instead to stretch a fabric or leather panel between two aluminum frames to create a firm yet flexible seat. The Aluminium Chair, with its fine padding, conforms to the user's body and is exceptionally comfortable. The Aluminium Group includes several distinct models for use in homes, offices, and public spaces. Thanks to the wide variety of models, aluminum bases with polished, chromed, or powder-coated black finishes, and the extensive selection of fabric or leather upholstery colors, the perfect Aluminium Chair can be found for any setting. Vitra has produced Aluminium Group chairs with the same superior quality for decades. This experience allows us to offer a 30-year warranty* on all Aluminium Group chair models.
