Inspired by Hella Jongerius’ home country - the Netherlands - the Polder Sofa’s name references a characteristic feature of the Dutch landscape: a polder is a low-lying stretch of land that has been reclaimed from the sea.

The Polder Sofa by Hella Jongerius creates a focal point in any interior: its asymmetrical shape and cushions in various fabrics and colours have given it a distinctive iconic look.

Together with the Dutch designer, Vitra has now developed a new version in colours and fabrics exclusively available from Vitra. This delicate mix of pastel shades shows the sofa in a fresh, soft light and is available as special edition from 1 September 2018 until 31 December 2019.
