The Bascule Lowback developed by Studio Œ for Vitra stands out with its low, enveloping silhouette, designed to offer a relaxed yet particularly comfortable sitting position. Without headrest, the Lowback adopts more compact proportions while maintaining the generous comfort characteristic of the Bascule collection. Under its padding is concealed an innovative mechanism that automatically reacts to weight changes and accompanies body movements with minimal resistance. The Bascule Lowback allows you to move naturally from an upright position to a deeply inclined, almost horizontal, posture. Inspired by fashion-forward techniques, the textile cover wraps around the structure like a garment and can be removed for cleaning or replacement. The various upholstery elements can also be repaired or replaced if necessary. In this configuration, the armchair is based on a four-pointed aluminum base, which brings a sober and contemporary finish to the whole. The Bascule Lowback combines freedom of movement, comfort and relaxed lines in both residential and professional spaces.
