Soft Pad Group Chairs

Eames Collection

Charles & Ray Eames feature among the most important figures of twentieth century design. Their work is multi-faceted: they developed funiture, produced films and photographs, organised exhibitions and designed and built their own house as a pioneering endeavour. Vitra has produced and marketed the furniture designs of Charles & Ray Eames since 1957. First producing under license, Vitra obtained exclusive rights to all Eames products for Europe and the Middle East in 1984. Consequently, we are the sole legitimate manufacturer of Eames designs in this part of the world. The brand gives you the security of owning an original product by Charles & Ray Eames.

Soft Pad Chaise The Soft Pad Chaise was designed in 1968. Its gently curving form makes it ideally suited to short periods of relaxation in the office or at home. Six cushions joined together by zip are attached to the aluminium frame, whilst two loose cushions enhance comfort.

The Soft Pad Chair was designed in 1969. In terms of construction and design it is identical to the Aluminium Chair. The attached padded sections form an interesting contrast to the elegant aluminium frame. The pads make the chair softer and more luxurious, without detracting from its transparency and clear lines.
