Thursday, October 15 | 5-7pm | MR. Capitol Hill
Thank you to everyone who joined us for an intimate evening in our Capitol Hill showroom experiencing Bascule, the new lounge chair from Vitra. Developed in collaboration with Studio Œ, Bascule combines the relaxed aesthetic of a loose-fitting fabric cover with a new Vitra seat mechanism that allows automatic weight adjustment.
The evening featured James Rose who led a discussion on the psychology of relaxation while guests sipped wellness beverages from Santé, tested the new chair, and listened to a new custom Spotify mix curated by Vitra.
Lisa Ertel and Anne-Sophie Oberkrome founded Studio Πin 2021 and have been working closely with Vitra since 2025. Studio Πdevelops projects grounded in material and context, understood as active components of the conceptual approach.
Design is viewed as an open-ended process transforming insights and observations from everyday life into meaningful, precisely articulated solutions. The duo’s projects navigate the intersection of functional objects, spatial interventions and exploratory gestures.
