The Suita Sofa heralds a new phase in the collaboration between Vitra and Antonio Citterio that dates back to 1985. For the first time, this corresponds to a furniture type that the 1950-born Citterio has helped shape in a masterly manner to produce a modern, timelessly elegant sofa family for the living area.
The name Suita is a reference to the Alpine cultural area shared by German-speaking Switzerland and northern Italy. Suita is Rumansh (a Rhaeto-Romance language spoken in parts of Grisons and one of the four official languages of Switzerland) and means suite, series, ensemble. It has been conceived as a classic sofa range, whose individual pieces can be mixed and matched, and - thanks to their discreet design - can easily be integrated into existing furniture arrangements. The sofa range consists of a two-seater, a three-seater and a chaise longue, a daybed, two upholstered platforms, an ottoman and a club armchair. Two special features of Suita are the optional raised headboards on the sofas and the chaise longue, and the optional shelves that can be mounted on the back of the sofas.
Since Suita comes in many versions, it can be used in all living room spaces to fulfil nearly all kinds of furnishing needs. This is due to the sofa range’s compact design - a feature that people living in urban living spaces might especially appreciate.
