Vitra Amoebe Highback Lounge Chair

Vitra Amoebe Highback Lounge Chair

Manufacturer: Vitra

Designer: Verner Panton, 1970

This is an original genuine Vitra piece.

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.

In the Highback version, the extended backrest curves up and over the sitter's head to form a niche-like canopy — a sense of shelter and seclusion within the room. The seat and backrest remain a single sculptural unity, its organic silhouette drawn from the form of single-celled organisms, generously padded throughout.

Handcrafted and available in a wide range of Vitra fabrics and colours, the Amoebe Highback adapts to any interior. The covers are removable and can be replaced or refitted by trained professionals.
