TYPES OF UPHOLSTERY

CLASSIC CUSHIONSElegant shape with large back cushions, linear contours, formal appearance, available with firm or soft padding.

The elegant Suita Sofa family encompasses a wide range of elements that can be freely combined with one another. A choice of different cushion types augments the adaptability of this system to fulfil personal needs and preferences.

The sleek body, consisting of a tubular steel frame covered in moulded polyurethane foam with web suspension, forms the basis of all Suita models. It can be fitted with firmly upholstered seat cushions or, alternatively, soft reversible cushions. Back cushions are available in two different shapes:

FIRM SEAT UPHOLSTERY AND FIRM CLASSIC CUSHIONSThe firm upholstery version provides resilient support, yielding only partially to the weight of the sitter. Its firm padding makes it easy to sit down and stand up.The seat cushion comprises various foam layers, referred to as a sandwich construction. It is softer towards the back and firmer in front, thus providing enhanced support for the sitter. The back cushions have a chamber cushion structure filled with a mixture of feathers and polyurethane rods.

The crisp appearance of the firm upholstery elements is charac-terised by linear, geometric forms.

Firm upholstery versions are available with covers in fabric or leather.

TYPES OF COMFORT

SOFT SEAT UPHOLSTERY AND SOFT CLASSIC AND POINTED CUSHIONS

The soft upholstery is distinguished by its soft appearance and supple comfort. It allows the sitter to sink into the cushioning more deeply than the firm upholstery version and creates an inviting place to lounge and relax.

The seat upholstery consists of a polyurethane foam core surrounded by a chamber cushion structure filled with a mixture of feathers and polyurethane rods.

The large classic back cushion has a chamber structure contain-ing a blend of feathers and polyurethane rods.

The stitched pointed cushions are filled with a mixture of feathers and polyurethane chips.

The appearance of the soft upholstery elements conveys a feeling of cosy comfort. The cover material is loosely fitted with gentle folds.

The soft upholstered version only comes with fabric covers.Firm upholstery versions are available with covers in fabric or leather.

Alexander Girard (1907-1993)

Together with his colleagues Charles and Ray Eames and George Nelson, Alexander Girard was one of the leading figures in American design

during the postwar era. His passion for colours, patterns and textures found expression in the field of textile design, which was a focal part

of his oeuvre. With their colourful patterns, his textiles are as fresh and contemporary as when they were first introduced over fifty years ago.

Girard's designs lend a sensuous playfulness to modern furnishings. Complemented by pillows featuring his motifs, the Suita Sofa acquires a

warm and individual expressiveness. The printed cushions are covered with Olimpo fabric in the colours pearl or sandstone.

USEFUL FACTS ABOUT COVER MATERIALS

Covers have a decisive influence on the appearance and characteristics of upholstered furniture. Along with the type of material, weave and aesthetic features of the textile, a major role is played by technical properties such as resistance to abrasion, fading or stains.

Function and performance are primarily determined by the type of fabric used. In general, synthetic fibres are superior to natural fibres in terms of their technical characteristics. For this reason, blends of different materials are employed to combine the advantages of the individual fibres.

In the following, you will find some of the key features of the textiles used by Vitra in its upholstery covers:

Cotton (CO)Skin-friendly natural fibre of plant origin, comfortable to the touch, readily absorbs moisture. Often inferior to synthetic fibres with regard to colourfastness and light resistance, flat weaves susceptible to pilling.

Linen (LI)Natural fibre of plant origin with slight lustre, cool and comfortable, repels dirt, no pilling. Limited colourfastness to light and crocking, creases easily.

Wool (WO)Elastic natural fibre of animal origin, naturally self-cleaning – a brief airing disperses absorbed odours, leaving the wool smelling neutral and fresh again.Good resistance to light and abrasion, highly absorbent, minimal creasing, low flammability. Subject to pilling and matting.

Polyester (PE), Polyacrylic (PA), Viscose (VI)Synthetic, highly uniform, lightfast fibres. The non-absorbent properties of synthetics can be mitigated with fibre blends and weaving techniques.

The overall look of a piece of furniture is influenced by the colour and type of cover fabric, its properties (elastic or non-stretch) as well as the upholstery technique (removable or attached covers). Conse-quently, a sofa can take on a different appearance depending on the cover material. Generally speaking, cover fabrics with some elasticity are less susceptible to creases and puckering, since they have an adaptable fit on three-dimensional forms. Heavier cover materials such as Over, Laser or Credo drape more smoothly while thinner materials exhibit a finer rippling effect.

Care instructions:All Suita covers are removable. Fabric covers can be taken to a professional cleaner. Prior to treatment, please be sure to note the composition of the cover fabric and follow care instructions.

Should you ever need to replace individual parts or covers due to wear and tear, please contact your local Vitra retailer.

USEFUL FACTS ABOUT UPHOLSTERY

Vitra has over fifty years of experiencein the production of upholstered furniture. Premium materials, skilled craftsmanship and high quality standards at Vitra are a guarantee for long-lasting products. In Vitra's own test centre, our upholstered furnishings are regularly subjected to a wide range of tests that far exceed common standards.

Care instructions:Exposure to direct sunlight should be avoided whenever possible, since intensive radiation can cause cover materials to fade.

To retain the original fullness and shape of your sofa, cushions should be regularly shaken and plumped.

Folds and creases from sitting can be prevented in all types of upholsteryby smoothing the cover material after use.

USEFUL FACTS ABOUT LEATHER

The products developed by Vitra in collaboration with internationally re-nowned designers are distinguished by excellent quality and great longevity. Based on the criteria of durability, warmth and comfort, high-quality leather is superior to almost any other material.

Leather is a robust natural product with an individual character that lends a timeless elegance to furnishings.

The quality of leather depends, in part, on the animals themselves: their breed, age and gender, their geographical origins and respective climate conditions. Vitra exclusively uses leather sourced from animals in Scandinavia and Central Europe. Scars, sting marks and scratches are normal characteristics of leather that highlight its natural appearance. Vitra utilises only the best hides.

Another factor that influences the quality of leather is the tanning of the skins. Tanning is the name of the process used to turn cowhide into leather. The art of tanning requires the same skill and attention to detail as it has for centuries: before the selected salt-cured skins are ready for tanning, they must be soaked in water and the hair must be removed. The valuable outer skin is fleshed and cleaned before the actual tanning process begins. The skins are soaked in large, rotating vats filled with tanning agents obtained from plants, minerals or synthetic compounds, which are absorbed by the fibres to make the leather soft and durable.

Vitra uses leather in three different qualities:

Pigmented leather (Leather)Leather in standard quality is pigmented. It is especially robust and offers outstand-ing economical value. Highly resistant to both UV radiation and abrasion, its appearance and physical properties change very little over a long period of time. The top side of the skin is sanded, pigmented with an opaque surface colour and embossed with an even grain pattern. Pigmented leather is simple to care for and also easy to clean.

Semi-aniline leather(Leather Premium / Leather Grand)Vitra's Premium and Grand leathers are both semi-aniline leathers mainly distin-guished by differences in their grain textures. Premium leather has a silky, smooth-grained surface, while the grain pattern of Grand leather is more pro-nounced. This is achieved in a milling process which makes the skin more pliable and gives added volume to the grain. Semi-aniline leather is dyed through with a lightly pigmented finishing layer. Premium and Grand leathers are a good choice for connoisseurs who value durability but also desire the soft, warm feel of natural leather. The beauty of this leather evolves with use, so that the upholstery acquires its typical patina as the years go by.

Aniline leather(Leather Natural)Vitra's Natural leather is a pure aniline leather. It is dyed without a pigmented surface coating, making it less resistant to light but fully retaining its natural appear-ance. Only a minimal protective surface finish is applied. The natural processing of aniline leather gives it maximum breatha-bility and a silky, soft feel. Careful treatment preserves the beauty of this exquisite cover material and lends it an appealing, individual patina.

Care instructions:Furniture with leather upholstery should not be positioned in close proximity to heat sources, which can cause leather to dry out and become brittle. We also recommend that leather upholstery be protected from permanent exposure to direct sunlight, since intensive radiation can diminish the quality of leather and cause it to fade over time.

For occasional cleaning, add flakes of a hard neutral soap to distilled water and stir until frothy. Moisten a soft cloth (do not use microfibre cloth) and wipe gently over the leather surface, leaving it slightly damp. The ingredients in the soapy liquid remove dust and dirt, while also supplying the leather with needed conditioners.

Liquid spills should be immediately dabbed dry and wiped off with a little water (do not use microfibre cloth).

Small soiled spots can be removed with a colourless rubber (eraser).

Once a year, the leather should be treated with a special leather care product; never use aggressive cleaning agents.Please refer to the leather care instructions provided with your sofa.
