From Grand Repos to the office

Vitra says the Grand Executive joins the elegance of the Grand Repos lounge chair, which Antonio Citterio designed for the Vitra Home Collection, with the functionality of a modern office chair. Decorative seams highlight the handcrafted details and delineate the volumetric structure of the upholstery.

A family of chairs

Beside the Highback, Vitra offers a Lowback with a lower backrest and a Conference version for visitor and conference seating. With Grand Repos and Repos they form a family of chairs that gives offices, conference rooms, lobbies, waiting zones and reception areas a unified look.
