Welcome to Chattanooga Vitra...



Chattanooga now has a Vitra retailer! It's Smart Furniture of course. Vitra has manufactured furniture designs by Charles & Ray Eames and George Nelson since 1957. Building on this institution over the years, the company has developed a wide range of furnishings for the home, for the office and for public spaces in a partnership with progressive designers.

Along with adding Vitra we will be adding NEW designs to the showroom floor! Here's a little sneak peek...




Panton Chair
The Panton Chair is timeless classic. Verner Panton created it back in 1960, and with the assistance of Vitra developed a version ready for series production in 1967. It was the very first fully plastic chair made from a single section. The Panton Chair has won various design prizes world wide and graces the collections of numerous renowned museums. Its expressive shape makes it a true 20th-century design icon.




Vegetal Chair
Its plant-like structure made of polyamide dyed plastic, goes to the limits of the technically feasible. This wonderful chair is available in five different colors, emphasizing its link to nature. Vegetal is stackable and suitable for indoor or outdoor use.


Ball Clock
George Nelson's Ball Clock is an iconic example of mid-century modern design.

First shipment to arrive May 7th.
