Manufacturer: Vitra | Designer: Verner Panton, 1970

Born from Visiona II

The Amoebe was born from one of the most radical interiors of the twentieth century. Created in 1970 for Verner Panton's legendary Visiona II installation — a psychedelic, immersive environment staged aboard an exhibition ship at the Cologne Furniture Fair — it was conceived as a low-slung lounge sculpture that dissolved the boundary between furniture and space.

The seat and backrest form a single sculptural unity, its organic silhouette — as the name suggests — drawn from the form of single-celled organisms. Close to the floor and generously padded throughout, it invites a particular kind of ease: unhurried, enveloping, entirely its own.

Handcrafted and available in a wide range of Vitra fabrics and colours. The covers are removable and can be replaced or refitted by trained professionals.

Materials

  • Backrest: laminated frame.

Upholstery Grades

  • Fabric F60 Volo — Heavy Use —  A finely structured wool blend with a refined weave that gives it an elegant appearance. This expressive textile shows strong solid colours to full advantage while simultaneously offering pleasant tactile qualities. With its soft look and appealing texture, Volo is a perfect fit for home interiors, but it is also well suited for use in the contract sector. Available in 16 colours.
  • Fabric 80 Cosy 2 — Heavy Use — High-quality milled woollen cloth with a warm character. The lively melange yarn emphasises the fabric's natural colours – from delicate shades to vibrant hues – and gains added elegance with colour-coordinated stitching. The fabric offers thermal comfort and excellent durability, making it suited for upholstered furniture in office settings as well as residential applications. Available in 15 colours.
  • Fabric 100 Tonus — Residential Use — A classic woollen cloth in a plain weave with an appealingly soft and flexible feel. The deep intensity of Tonus colours – ranging from warm and earthy golds that evoke oriental myths and spices to cool nordic hues in the aquamarine spectrum – lend a unique richness to the fabric. Available in 14 colours.
  • Fabric F120 Cento — Medium Use — Made of 100% high-quality virgin wool. Its bouclé appearance and three-dimensional structure create a lively surface texture with a voluminous granular feel. Thanks to the sustainable purity of the wool, Cento has been granted the EU Ecolabel. Available in 14 colours.
