Vitra Mikado Armchair

Designed by Edward Barber & Jay Osgerby in 2024, the Vitra Mikado armchair features soft, clean lines that embody the philosophy of Barber & Osgerby designs, providing a chair that allows for a small degree of movement (Who can forget the Tip Ton?) whilst also offering a great aesthetic.

Being human-centric does not mean the design or sustainability story has been compromised.

Mikado is offered with a range of different leg forms, from wooden to metal (in a choice of finishes). Mikado from Vitra is also offered as both a side chair or armchair version for greater comfort & adaptability.

The Vitra Mikado armchair also features a high content of recycled materials from its individual components (covers included) - the Mikado armchair is easily repaired or replaced by furniture installers thereby extending the chair’s lifespan.

Mikado's clever design follows the sustainability story to its conclusion when at the end of Mikado's service life, all the parts can be separated for disposal or recycling. Mikado's covers are neither glued nor stapled, allowing for the polyurethane foam to be easily separated from the seat cushion support and back shell.
