The Alcove Couch, available now in Red fabric.
Designed by Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec, this unusually designed sofa is designed to create a room within a room. The Alcove sofa is a design classic going beyond being merely a piece of furniture. With its unusually soft seat and backrest upholstery, as well as the high, flexible side and back panels, Alcove Sofa creates the frame for such a comfy, safe and secure world, a place for relaxed withdrawal from the hustle and bustle of life: Two people can stretch out and sit opposite each other, leaning leisurely back against the side walls, and if required the sofa also provide sufficient space for a third person. Alcove Sofa combines the contrasting qualities of a comfortable secluded relaxation area with an open invitation to enter and sit down.

Design Story
Founded in 1950 in Basel by Willi Fehlbaum, the company began as a shop fitting manufacturer before discovering the work of Charles Eames and Ray Eames during a trip to the United States. Impressed by their revolutionary approach to furniture, Fehlbaum secured the European licensing rights to produce their designs, a decision that would shape Vitra’s identity for decades.
Over time, Vitra became far more than a manufacturer. The company built long term collaborations with some of the world’s most important designers, including Verner Panton, Jean Prouvé, and Jasper Morrison. Rather than chasing trends, Vitra focused on timeless forms, intelligent engineering, and furniture designed to improve everyday life.
Its pieces became staples of modern interiors, from creative offices and museums to carefully curated homes. At the same time, Vitra helped preserve design history by continuing to produce many classic mid century designs with exceptional attention to detail and authenticity.
Today, Vitra remains deeply associated with contemporary architecture and design culture. Through its furniture, exhibitions, and the renowned Vitra Campus, the company continues to shape the conversation around how modern spaces should look, feel, and function.
