Vitra Mikado Armchair.

The Vitra Mikado Armchair is an elegant and versatile armchair that naturally combines comfort, functionality, and contemporary design. Designed by Edward Barber & Jay Osgerby, the Mikado distinguishes itself through its refined design, inviting seating comfort, and innovative freedom of movement.

This version is upholstered in the high-quality Cento Mid Grey / Black 10 fabric, a stylish and timeless color scheme that effortlessly complements modern living and working environments. The practical 5-star caster base offers optimal flexibility and makes the chair extremely suitable for meeting rooms, home offices, offices, and creative workspaces.

The comfort of the Mikado Armchair goes beyond just the soft upholstery. The fully upholstered seat shell features subtly integrated armrests that offer extra support without losing the light character of the design. An ingeniously hidden mechanism is located beneath the seat, allowing the backrest to move with the body. This natural movement supports an active sitting posture and enhances comfort throughout the day. As designers Edward Barber & Jay Osgerby state:

"Who wants to sit still all the time? We are human beings, and we need to be able to move to concentrate. Mikado taps into this concept and provides greater comfort in a dynamic, sustainable way."

Thanks to the extensive choice of upholstery, colors, and bases, the Mikado collection can easily be adapted to diverse interior concepts. Furthermore, the Armchair can be perfectly combined with the Mikado Side Chair, where both models share the same characteristic design language and together create a harmonious whole.
