Vitra .04 Beam Seating Designed by Maarten van Severen

The .04 beam seating, designed by Maarten Van Severen and produced by Vitra, reveals its comfort through everyday use. The flexible shell made of robust integral foam provides optimal support, enhanced by the spring system integrated into the backrest, ensuring ergonomics and lasting comfort.

Mounted on a T-shaped base, .04 beam seating functions as a modular complement ideal for waiting areas, combining visual lightness with functionality. The design distinguishes itself from traditional office seating, giving public and professional spaces a contemporary and discreet character.

The flexible shell allows a gently curved backrest, while the micro-mechanism with a rubber ball joint enables subtle multi-directional movement, enhancing posture and user comfort. Maarten Van Severen’s design approach merges essential aesthetics with functional innovation, making the seating versatile and durable.

With its sober design and high-quality construction, .04 beam seating is suitable not only for offices and public waiting areas but also for home environments such as studies and home offices, where ergonomics and discretion meet style and practicality.
