n a development process that took four years, Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec worked with Vitra to create a universal chair for indoors and outdoors whose contours seem borrowed from nature.

Name / Vegetal
Designer / Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec
Manufacturer / Vitra

Vegetal features flat branch structures woven in three levels to form a round, slightly irregular seating shell. On the underside, the chair is stabilized by ribs that grow out of the supportive legs.

To realise the clear innovative concept the designers had in mind, it took intensive collaboration with Vitra. Complex forms like these can only be achieved when the designer and manufacturer are dedicated to producing an exceptional solution without the pressure of time. The result is a pioneering chair which is comfortable, stable and made from durable die-cast fibre-reinforced polyamide.
