Porsche’s Pepita houndstooth pattern cloth has an extended history of cosseting the backsides of P-car drivers, having been utilized in its interiors for the reason that mid-Nineteen Sixties. The pattern is inextricably linked to Porsche history. Likewise, furniture design owes much of what it’s today to Ray and Charles Eames. Back in 1948, the Eames brothers developed a fiberglass chair that has turn into an icon in its own right. Porsche also began its life in 1948. It’s a tenuous link for a collaboration, but Porsche is making the link anyway, and the resulting chairs are pretty rattling cool.

An agreement between Porsche and German furniture makers Vitra has cranked out a trio of chair designs for your house, each more extravagant and visually exciting than the last. They’ll be available in limited production for an entire lot of cash. In case you want one, you’ll must grab it quickly, because they’re sure to expire principally immediately.

“The Porsche Pepita Edition by Vitra is a symbiosis of the DNA of our firms: iconic design paired with excellent craftsmanship and compelling function,” says Robert Ader, Chief Marketing Officer at Porsche AG. “The timeless Pepita pattern gives the chairs a really striking appearance, whether in your personal front room or within the office.”

First up is the Eames-style “Plastic Side Chair,” which is proscribed to 1,963 units and priced at €911, the equivalent of $968. This one doesn’t appear to be available to U.S. customers, which is a shame, because I’d almost take into consideration spending that much money to get one. It’s cool.

If you desire to prove to everyone in your office that you simply’re the boss, you may get this gorgeous high-backed desk chair called “ID Trim L Pepita Edition,” designed by Antonio Citterio for Vitra in 2010. This one is limited to 911 pieces, and it’ll run you $2,530.

The ultimate chair within the trio is my favorite, and unfortunately the costliest. The Petit Repos Pepita Edition armchair was also designed by Antonio Citterio in 2013. With thick Pepita-topped upholstery and an integrated flexible back connection, allowing a deep sit with appropriate relaxed lean angles, this chair is seriously rad. It’ll be produced in a limited run of just 99 units with an outrageous $5,179 price tag. Knowing Porsche dorks (because I’m one), it will sell out inside minutes.

As luck would have it, I’m available in the market for a brand new desk chair. This collaboration launches on the Porsche online shop on Monday, April 22. In case you aren’t in line at 3 AM eastern time when this drop, um, drops, don’t even trouble. They’ll be gone by the point you get up.
