The ID Chair Concept, an office swivel chair collection from Swiss manufacturer Vitra, has been designed to meet the very high demands of the contemporary business sector for functionality, economy and aesthetics, and takes into account both the individual needs of employees and the unified requirements of the company. The Vitra ID Soft office chair is, as with the other chairs designed by Antonio Citterio and launched in 2010, individually configurable: thus, for example, is available without armrests or where required simple 2D or more involved 3D armrests. In addition the colour and material choice can be individually selected and customised. The seat and backrest are formed from high-quality polyurethane foam padding thus ensuring high seating comfort. Furthermore the Vitra ID Soft is available with two different support mechanisms: The ProMatic mechanism adapts to the weight of the individual user and thus is ideal for situations of relative short term use, for example with touch-down workplaces. The FlowMotion mechanism in contrast includes numerous functions and can be adjusted individually according to the user's requirements making this version of the ID Soft chair more suitable for permanent use and a longer term sitting. The Vitra office swivel chair is also available as a completely black version ID Soft Black Special at a special discount. With the Vitra ID Soft, design, ergonomics and functionality go hand in hand and thus the Vitra office chair has the potential to become the heart of every office environment.
