Description

Manufactured by Vitra, this Standard Chair in an ecru powder-coated steel and oak finish by Jean Prouvé is a French design classic that showcases perfect, minimalist style with its optimum weight distribution and masterful balance. An engineer, architect and designer all at once, Jean Prouvé called himself 'le Constructeur' or 'The Factory man' and was driven by systematic design and industrial processes. Designed in 1934, the Standard Chair reflects his simple insight that seating designs take the most strain on the back legs; solving this weight distribution issue, Prouvé created lightweight tubular powder-coated steel front supports and stronger, more voluminous hollow steel back legs that transfer the sitter's weight into the floor. Finished with an ergonomic oak wood seat and backrest, the Standard Chair in ecru epitomises comfortable, clean-lined design that endures through the years.


Our Stylist Says

I love this chair for its understated elegance and versatility. The choice of ecru fabric paired with the oak frame means it can slot seamlessly into both contemporary and more traditional dining spaces. It works particularly well in light, airy interiors or neutral colour palettes, adding warmth without overwhelming. When styling, consider pairing it with a sleek glass or wooden table for a minimalist look, and don’t shy away from adding colourful or textured cushions to introduce a bit of personality. Practical tips include mixing and matching with similar tones or materials to create an eclectic setting or keeping it unified for a clean, modern aesthetic. Its simple form makes it a flexible choice that can adapt as your interior evolves.
