Vitra Soft Pad Chair EA 222 Chair

Vitra Soft Pad Chair EA 222 and footrest EA 223 were designed by Charles & Ray Eames in 1969. Featuring a high backrest and a low seat, the Soft Pad Chair EA 222 by Charles and Ray Eames offers ultimate comfort – due in no small part to the chair's tilt mechanism, which can be adjusted to the weight of the individual user. The matching stool EA 223 provides a comfortable footrest. Together, EA 222 and EA 223 form the perfect spot for long cosy evenings with a good book.

The design of the Soft Pad Group dates from the year 1969. In terms of both construction and shape, the Soft Pad Chairs are similar to the design of the Aluminium Group. However, their sewn-on cushions create a striking contrast to the slender aluminium profiles. The Soft Pad Chairs are softer and more voluptuous than the chairs in the Aluminium Group, but without losing the clean clarity of their common silhouette. The chairs adapt to the body of the sitter and provide extraordinary comfort.
