Polder, Hella Jongerius, 2005/15
The distinctive character of Hella Jongerius’s
comfortable Polder Sofa derives from the
combination of diverse fabrics and colours, an
asymmetrical shape and charming details.
The Dutch designer Hella Jongerius lives and
works in Berlin. She founded the Jongeriuslab
studio in 1993 and began collaborating with
Vitra in 2004. Since then, she has not only
contributed a substantial number of designs
to the continually expanding Vitra Home
Collection, but has also applied her expertise
in the realm of colours and materials to the
Vitra Colour & Material Library.
Dutch designer Hella Jongerius named her sofa ‘Polder’ with its different
colour compositions after the low-lying flatlands in Holland, which have
been reclaimed from the sea.
The smaller Polder Compact is available in addition to the Polder Sofa.
Both can be configured with the higher armrest on the left or right side,
making them adaptable to different interior layouts. The platform is
available separately and can also be used as an ottoman.
