RED THEORY DESIGN x FORTRESS SEATING
A COLLABORATION
OF INDUSTRY LEADERS
Established as a contract seating manufacturer over 75 years ago, Fortress Seating began its transition into home theater seating in the 1990s—filling a gap in the market for customizable, designer-led solutions. Built entirely in-house at their California facility, every Fortress chair is made to order, offering unmatched flexibility in upholstery, dimensions, and design detailing. As media rooms and home theaters have evolved into multi-use, architecturally integrated spaces, Fortress recognized the need for a new approach. Their partnership with Red Theory reflects a shared interest in creating seating that speaks to today’s design standards—bringing together Fortress’s manufacturing expertise with Red Theory’s insight into how people live with technology and design in the modern home.
The collection features a curated selection of elevated materials, including European velvets, mohair, and chenille, with refined detailing such as contrast piping. Each element was chosen for its texture, durability, and ability to complement both modern and transitional interiors
Fortress Seating stands apart from its competitors with its unparalleled ability to customize every aspect of its seating—offering truly bespoke furniture solutions that blend luxury, comfort, and personal expression.
