Polder Sofa – Vitra

Polder Sofa – Vitra
Designed by Hella Jongerius. The distinctive design of the comfortable Polder Sofa by Hella Jongerius derives from its asymmetrical shape, varied combinations of fabrics and colours, and carefully chosen details. It is available in shades of red, green, golden yellow and night blue, creating a striking addition to any interior.

In the home country of Dutch designer Hella Jongerius, the word ‘polder’ refers to low-lying flatlands, typically subdivided into fields serving various agricultural purposes, which have been reclaimed from the sea by means of dykes and drainage canals. With their flat surfaces, low-slung body and horizontal emphasis, both Polder sofas evoke the characteristic features of the polder landscape.
