Cité Armchair
Price starting from € 3.560,00*
*Price valid for the version with upholstery in fabric cat. F40 – base in steel (cod. 210 437 00).
Beautiful and elegant, with a touch of originality that allows it to stand out from the crowd. Cité was born on the occasion of a competition for the furnishing of the university residence within the Cité Universitaire of Nancy. This seat soon distinguished itself for the characteristic skids in coated steel sheet on which it rests, whose design also acts as armrests. The comfortable headrest can be used to further increase comfort. The variety of finishes and upholstery in fabric and leather have enriched Cité over time, making it perfect for different rooms in the house, from the most to the less formal depending on taste. Another addition to the comfort of the Cité is the ottoman.

Swiss by birth, Vitra is a unique company in many ways. Unique in its home collections, light and colorful; unique in its office furnishings, which combine in a masterful implementation design and ergonomics; unique for the designer parterre that enriches its catalog. Among prestigious historical re-enactments and fruitful collaborations, Vitra has always had the ability to relive the past and project to the future. However, Vitra is unique above all for Rolf Fehlbaum's corporate address, where the company transcends the business to fulfill wider social and cultural functions: the creation of a unique project such as Vitra Campus and the annexed Vitra Design Museum is an example.Read more
Designed by
Jean Prouvé
Jean Prouvé (1901-1984) is one of the great names of French design of the twentieth century. Son of the painter and sculptor Victor Prouvé, he was essentially self-taught: he studied as a blacksmith and soon opened his own workshop, drawing the principles of his style from daily practice and work on new technologies. "I am but a worker", he wrote in his autobiography. His art was engineering applied to design: he was a pioneer in the use of sheet steel and aluminum in the creation of furniture and lamps, moving away from the use of the typical tubular of the Bauhaus and going to create his own aesthetic, with an imprint strongly industrial, driven by a constant search for innovation and functionality. Starting in the 1950s, he abandoned his activity in the company and intensified his public presence, eventually chairing the commission that in 1971 chose Renzo Piano and Richard Rogers for the design of the Center Pompidou in Paris. His furnishings have been reissued exclusively by Vitra since 2002.Read more
