v We believe that a home is a collage. A unique composition of objects set in continuous motion by people (and pets). As we move through our lives, we collect the things and the memories that com bine to create the grain and texture of spaces that could only be ours.

When a Vitra object arrives in your home, it already comes with a long story. One of a designer who, in collaboration with us, starts a seemingly endless development process, filled with trials and errors. One of a manufacturing attitude where the details are not the details, but what makes the quality of your new piece. And you take this tale forward enriching it with the stories of your own home.

Adjustment mechanism

The Mariposa sofas do not openly display their functional features: the slim side and back elements can be continuously and silently adjusted, from an upright position to an outward angle of approximately 30° and back again. This flexibility allows individual users to determine the position that is most comfortable for them.
