Spanish designer Beatriz Sempere devised the Vida seating collection for Midj to convey a sense of welcoming and wellbeing into everyday life. Inspired by a “personal moment of joy,” the series has a lighthearted aesthetic defined by its heart-shaped backrest. 

This subtle gesture emerged organically during the design process, lending Vida an instantly recognizable detail that represents warmth, kindness and closeness without being overt or overly decorative. 

Made from curved tubular metal, the backrest frame interacts with the upholstered volumes to create a harmonious balance between visual lightness, comfort and ergonomics. 

A precise and considerate attention to detail runs through every piece in the Vida collection, establishing a distinct design expression that celebrates the merging of function and emotion. The gentle contours of the seat and back create a naturally comfortable perch while the refined silhouette complements the rigour of the tubular metal frame. 

A multi-piece collection, Vida from Midj includes chairs, armchairs, lounge chairs (with or without arms) and stools (in two heights), with all the variations presenting cohesive and well-proportioned forms that are naturally suited to residential settings but that also feel at home in commercial, contract and hospitality environments. 

The chairs and stools in the Vida collection can be customized to perfectly suit their surroundings: The seats and backs can be upholstered in a large number of leather (including saddle and Tuscan saddle), faux leather and fabric options; in some configurations, the veneered wood of the seat and back remain visible, adding both material warmth and aesthetic depth. 

A rich and diverse palette of bright colours, neutral tones and metallic finishes is available for the tubular metal frame, including Chrome, Golden Bronze and Matte Black Nickel, Cherry Red, Papaya Orange, Blue Turquoise, White Pearl, Pastel Yellow and Light Grey.
