Designer

Frank Gehry, 1972

The Canadian Architect Frank Gehry founded the architecture firm Frank Gehry & Associates in Los Angeles in 1962. In addition to his legendary construction projects – among them the Vitra Design Museum, a production facility and Vitra’s headquarters – he has also created a number of furniture designs.

Brand

Vitra is much more than a brand but rather a staple of design. Established in 1950 in Birsfelden, Switzerland, the brand has left its mark in design history through its transcending path. Starting as a furniture producer, it paved its way to manufacturing and ultimately becoming the powerhouse design institution we see today.
