      Less Is More. Time Has Proved It.

      Designed in 1929 by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe for the German Pavilion at the Barcelona International Exposition, the Barcelona Chair isn’t just furniture—it’s a manifesto in steel and leather.

      Its signature “X”-frame, crafted from hand-polished 304 stainless steel, borrows strength and balance from architectural geometry.

      Each leather tile is hand-cut and hand-stitched, then individually edged and piped—a tribute to meticulous craftsmanship.

      The result? A timeless form that doesn’t ask for attention, yet quietly commands it. This is more than seating.

      It’s what happens when form follows function, and every detail earns its right to be there.

      3 Colors. Infinite Clarity. Pure Presence.

      Some chairs chase trends. This one defines presence.

      Available in three timeless tones—crisp white, rich brown, and deep black—the UF Orion Sit with Me in Style Chair adapts to any interior while maintaining its unmistakable identity.

      In white, it feels architectural and pure. In black, it evokes strength and permanence.

      In brown, it adds warmth and lived-in character. Each finish is paired with premium leather that’s soft to the touch yet structured enough to maintain its clean lines.

      No matter the color, it never fades into the background—it belongs exactly where you put it.

      Ludwig Mies van der Rohe

      Designer

      Ludwig Mies van der Rohe (1886–1969) was a German-American architect and designer, widely regarded as one of the pioneers of modernist architecture and design. Known for his minimalist approach and his use of modern materials, Mies is one of the most influential figures in the development of modern architecture.

      Mies van der Rohe started his career in Germany, working under the influence of modernist movements like the Bauhaus. He later moved to the United States, where he became a key figure in shaping American architecture and design. His design philosophy was rooted in simplicity and functionality, with an emphasis on open spaces and a refined use of materials.

      Mies van der Rohe is famous for his motto "less is more," which encapsulated his approach to design. He believed that buildings and furniture should be free of unnecessary ornamentation, focusing instead on the purity of form and materials. His work often combined steel, glass, and other industrial materials, creating sleek, modern designs that were both functional and aesthetically sophisticated.

      The Leather Makes the Chair. We Made No Compromises.

      Your skin knows quality before your mind does. That’s why we chose premium imported leather for the UF Orion Sit with Me in Style Chair—rich in grain, naturally breathable, and thick enough to handle daily life without cracking, fading, or fuss. It’s as durable as it is beautiful—and just as easy to care for.

      High Back. Full Support. All Day Comfort.

      We raised the back just enough to support the neck and upper spine without overpowering the silhouette. Whether you’re leaning back after a long day or settling in with a book, the high-resilience foam padding in both the seat and backrest holds its form, offering lasting comfort hour after hour.

      Precision Stitching, Cushioned Comfort.

      The seat and back are divided into 20 perfectly aligned leather squares, stitched with reinforced tension lines and finished with high-strength patented buttons. This tight geometric grid doesn’t just look refined—it holds its shape and sits like a dream: supportive without sagging, responsive without stiffness.

      Secure Fit. No Sliding. No Shifting.

      Worried about cushion creep? Don’t be. Each cushion is anchored with reinforced leather straps and hand-pulled tension buttons that keep everything firmly in place—no slipping, no frustration.

      Saddle Leather Straps. Built Like a Classic.

      The seat is supported by a system of thick saddle leather belts—wide enough to distribute weight evenly, strong enough to stay taut over time. It’s the kind of smart design you'd expect from a heritage piece built to last.

      Polished Stainless Steel. Built Like Architecture.

      That iconic X-frame? It’s cut from solid 304 stainless steel, then mirror-polished to catch just the right amount of ambient light. It’s not only striking but structurally sound—quietly anchoring the chair with poise and balance. Rubber feet protect your floors while keeping the frame exactly where it belongs.
