Home Stories
A home contains a unique mix of memories, stories and personalities. Within its walls, individual narratives are created through carefully chosen interior styles and distinct approaches to design. At this time of the year, we bring homes to life with the Vitra Home Collection. Iconic and eclectic, the collection encompasses not only the classics of 0th century design but also the most contemporary of pieces. It ranges across the spectrum of furniture typologies, design styles, colours and materials. Explored here in four different homes, the Vitra Home Collection empowers you to create your ideal living environment, be it sober minimalism or an eclectically colourful collage. #VitraHomeStory Tell us the story of your special place and try to win a Vitra lounge chair. Simply show us your home on Facebook or Instagram and explain why a Vitra lounge chair would be the perfect addition to your living collage. The conditions of participation and other details can be found at www.vitra.com/vitrahomestory. We wanted a home where we could combine family life and work under one roof. Then we found this building, which used to be a pub. We kept the original structure as much as possible, with gentle interventions partly improvised. The furniture reflects the same approach: we surrounded our dining table with a mix of chairs of all styles and colours.

Nobody believes me when I tell them this modernist house was built only two years ago. We wanted an elegant space with lots of natural light and a strong connection to nature. This is why we have selected natural materials, like wool and linen, marble and wood for our contemporary and classic furniture.

As a composer, I was looking for a space with generous volumes and the right acoustics that would allow me to focus completely on my music. I chose an interior that is clean and functional, to which I added colourful accents with my chairs. Cité Jean Prouvé, 90
