Vitra Landi Chair

Manufacturer: Vitra

Designer: Hans Coray 1938

This is an original genuine Vitra piece.

Developed for the 1939 Swiss National Exhibition, the Landi Chair occupies an important place in the history of twentieth-century design: this classic by Hans Coray established the new typology of a three-dimensionally moulded seat shell on a separate base. The lightweight, stackable Landi Chair is robust and weather-resistant. Technical innovation, systematic use of materials, minimalist forms and understated elegance are the elements that have made the Landi Chair into a classic over the years, which looks as fresh and vital as ever.

Seat shell: seat shell in pressed aluminium sheeting with 91 punched holes, matte anodised surface.

Base: armrests and legs from bent aluminium profiles, with welded aluminium cross braces, matte anodised surface.

Glides: glides in light grey injection-moulded TPE.

Note: as in the original design, the Landi Chair can be stacked up to 6 units high. Vitra‘s re-edition of the classic stays true to the original while making the most of the latest technical possibilities. The anodised aluminium surface of the chair is durable and weather-resistant but may develop signs of wear and tear if the chairs are stacked.

Outdoor use: Suitable for unrestricted use outdoors.

Dimensions: Height: 79.5cm (Seat Height 47.5cm) x Width: 40.5cm x Depth: 65cm.
