Vitra Fauteuil de Salon
Manufacturer: Vitra | Designer: Jean Prouvé, 1939
Architectural Form, Generous Comfort
The Fauteuil de Salon joins simple planes into a unified architectural object — a generous, comfortable armchair whose form follows directly from structural logic. Rediscovered in the archives of the French engineer Jean Prouvé, the design has been reissued by Vitra with an extended range of fabric and leather covers and a choice of original colours for the powder-coated steel base. Solid wood armrests in natural oak, dark stained oak, or American walnut add warmth to the chair’s angular frame, and the generous cushion padding gives it an inviting quality that belies its architectural rigour.
