The Meda Chair offers an exceptional level of comfort, thanks in part to the high level of flexibility offered by the complex yet simply controlled mechanism on the base of the chair. The adjustments follow the movement of the user's body without the need for any complicated machinery, while the covers stretch taut over the backrest, ensuring elastic support for the back when sitting. In addition to providing superb comfort, the Vitra Meda Chair - Leather makes for a stylish addition to any working or home environment, thanks to its sleek, minimalist industrial design. Also available in a hybrid leather and Netweave version.
