Vitra Miniatures: Vegetal Chair, Brick
Inspired by traditional furniture made from tree branches and by the requirement that it be suited for outdoor use, the Vegetal Chair was conceived by designers Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec as an emblem of organic evolution. Its origination in nature is conveyed through the intertwining, asymmetrical arrangement of the ribbed supports in the seat back and legs, as well as in its evocation of the earth in its colorways. Vitra makes the full-sized stackable chair for real people as well as this miniature 1:6 scale version for design collectors (who are also real people but don't sit on collectible miniatures!). The Vegetal Chair mini is made of dyed polyamide and comes 3 to a set. They are packed in an elegant wood box suitable for gifting and containing an information booklet about the design. Designed 2008. Available in Forest and Brick.
