Cité

Designed for a competition to furnish the student residence halls at the Cité Universitaire in Nancy, the Cité armchair is one of Jean Prouvé‘s early masterpieces.‎ Prouvé himself used this dynamic looking armchair – with distinctive runners made of powder-coated sheet steel and broad leather belts for armrests – in the living room of his own home.‎ Generous dimensions and inviting upholstery contribute to the great comfort of Cité.‎Materials:- Cover: seat and backrest with a continuous cover in fabric or leather.‎- Upholstery: neck cushion in polyurethane foam, height-adjustable.‎- Base: bent sheet steel, powder-coated finish (smooth).‎- Glides: fitted with plastic glides for carpet; felt glides for hard floors optionally available.‎
