Soft Wait – Vitra

For decades now, Vitra has been exploring work trends and developing office concepts, creating comfortable and inviting home interiors and – since the production of the Eames Tandem Seating for waiting areas – responding to the stringent requirements of public spaces. The boundaries between all of these areas of application are becoming increasingly blurred: the workplace is acquiring a more casual and comfortable feel, the home office is becoming widely established, and more and more people are working while on the go. Vitra translates the consequences of these merging environments into functional products – such as Soft Wait, which Vitra developed together with the designers Edward Barber and Jay Osgerby.
