Story
Understated comfort
Vitra describes the fully upholstered backrest as ensuring a high level of comfort, with clean lines and reductive forms that let the chair blend into different architectural settings.
Support for tall users
The height-adjustable backrest supports the upper shoulder region adequately even for very tall users, and the factbook says the lumbar zone is adjustable to stop the pelvis tilting backwards.
