Soft Wait Sofa

The Soft Wait sofa-style waiting area system combines cozy comfort with ergonomic seating, while adapting to the high levels of wear and tear in public spaces.

Vitra has been researching work trends and developing office concepts for decades, creating comfortable and inviting home interiors and responding to the demanding requirements of public spaces since the production of the Eames Tandem Armchair for waiting areas. The boundaries between all these fields of application are becoming increasingly blurred: workplaces are gaining a more relaxed and comfortable feel, the home office is becoming commonplace and more and more people are working on the go.

Vitra transforms the results of these merging environments into functional products, such as Soft Wait, developed in collaboration with designers Edward Barber and Jay Osgerby.
