Together, the different materials offer an almost infinite number of possible combinations. The coherence of the system makes it easy for architects, interior designers and end consumers to create a lively interior collage with a strong identity.
'The Vitra Colour & Material Library encourages creative freedom and fires the imagination – not by making everything possible, but by providing a clear display of options.'
