Another great Jean Prouvé masterpiece made by Vitra. Fauteuil Direction is a comfortable chair designed as a table seat. Its design is very reminiscent of the Chaise Tout Bois chair, but enriched with a more defined and articulated structure. The back is in polyurethane foam covered in leather or fabric. The armrests are in solid wood. The base is made of press-formed steel sheet and tubular steel. Ideal for home offices, Fateuil Direction is particularly suitable for lobbies, restaurants or waiting rooms. Among the variants we mention here the Fauteuil Direction Pivotant, distinguished from the first by an even more marked propensity towards the office and functionality.

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
