Vitra | Furniture Standard SP Chair – Olive / Ecru

Description

Standard SP s a chair by Jean Prouvé for Vitra. Structure in folded sheet metal and tubular steel, powder coated. Seat and back in ASA plastic.Standard SP ranks as a chair with linear and classic design although it is very comfortable. Chairs take the most stress on their back legs, where they bear the weight of the user’s upper body. The engineer, architect and designer Jean Prouvé incorporated this simple insight in his design for the Standard Chair: while steel tubing suffices for the front legs, since they are subject to less stress, the back legs are made of voluminous hollow sections that transfer the primary weight to the floor.Backrest and seat 74 olive, base 88 ecru
