Design Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec, 2008
Fiberglass reinforced polyamide, polyurethane, aluminum
Made in Germany by Vitra

With its harmonious, curved, protective shape, the Softshell Chair exudes a great sense of home. the single-section organic shell together with the concealed structure of the flexible backrest and the seamless upholstery provides extraordinarily great sitting comfort with longevity. On one hand the Softshell chair's design enables personal privacy. On the other, it also supports conversation in a family dining setting - or communication structures in a home office.

The two brothers, Ronan and Erwan, have been working together since 1999. Their collaboration is a constant dialogue, nourished by their single identities and strived towards a common goal. They were named "Creator of the Year" in 2002, elected "designer of the year" in 2003 and have won multiple other awards. Their creations have been exhibited in many collective or solo exhibitions and are part of some permanent museum collections around the world.

The four-star base features an aluminum base with swivel and pneumatic spring. Thanks to the various different upholstery materials, colors, and bases, the individual elements of the Softshell Chair are very flexible. It is just as suitable for conference and visitor areas, temporary workstations and home offices as it is for the dining table - either at home or in a restaurant.

Bros Bouroullec

Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec (b. 1971 and 1976) are a team of two brothers from the Brittany region in Northwest France. They began working together in 1999 and maintain a constant collaborative dialogue that incorporates each personality, and strikes a balance within their mutual quest for diligence and fineness. The brothers work with numerous manufacturers, such as Vitra and Cappellini. Their partnership with Vitra in 2002 has brought about perhaps their most prolific line of work, including the Joyn office system, and notable pieces like the Algues, the Alcove Sofa, the Worknest, the Slow Chair, the Vegetal and L’Oiseau. The brothers Bouroullec continue their vegetation-inspired work of natural and organic shapes and are recognized with various awards, in permanent collections, and in exhibitions all over the world.
Vitra is a Swiss company dedicated to improving the quality of spaces through the power of design. Product longevity is central to the company goal of sustainable development. Short lived styling is avoided in favor of classical pieces of furniture that can be used for decades, have several owners and end up as part of a collection.
