Kouichi Okamoto's Aluminum Wire Composition Chair

Vitra’s DKR Wire Chair was created in 1951 when Charles and Ray Eames, inspired by Buckminster Fuller’s work, decided to create a light and durable chair with as small amount of materials as possible. The most functional solution turned out to be a square-shaped cross structure in steel wire. Thanks to its airy and ergonomic shape and the classic Eiffel base, Wire Chair DKR will bring fresh, graphic edge to all kinds of interiors year after year.

first prototyped by dan svarth in 1972, the chair has been updated with a hardwearing carbon fiber wire weave.
