Iconic of modern design, the DAX (Dining Height Armchair X-Base) embodies the perfect union of functionality, comfort and timeless aesthetics.

Redesigned to contemporary standards, it retains the spirit of the original 1950 model while incorporating the high-quality materials and finishes for which Vitra is renowned.

Iconic design and refined finishes

The DAX is instantly recognisable by its organic seat shell in solution-dyed polypropylene, designed to follow the shape of the body.

Integrated armrests offer natural, enveloping comfort, ideal for prolonged use.

The soft, hard-wearing seat guarantees discreet ergonomics and durability over time.

The signature chrome-plated tubular steel base forms a cross-shaped structure (“X-Base”) ensuring perfect stability while imparting an elegant visual lightness.

The impeccable metal finishes underline the balance between industrial rigour and sculptural elegance characteristic of the Eames’ designs.

Ergonomic comfort and durable materials

Designed to accompany the body’s movements, the DAX chair offers flexible seating and natural lumbar support.

Integrated armrests provide optimum comfort for meals, meetings or working from home.

The manufacturing materials – solution-dyed polypropylene and chromed steel – ensure exceptional wear resistance and easy maintenance.

A simple damp cloth is all that’s needed to preserve the shell’s shine and colour over time.

Technical structure and stability

The chrome-plated steel base gives the DAX remarkable strength while ensuring perfect stability.

Interchangeable protective glides (felt or plastic) allow use on all types of flooring: carpet, parquet or tiles.

The rigorous design and precision of the assemblies testify to Vitra’s industrial and artisanal know-how.
