A classic Louis XVI chair made from a single piece injection-molded transparent polycarbonate? Who dares enough to tinkering with the seat of the king? Well, none other than Philippe Starck.
Designed by Philippe Starck for Kartell, Louis Ghost Chair (2002) is a postmodern visual play creation that combines a unique French baroque style in the past with the latest technical innovations. This chair is one of the most prominent examples of the use of translucent injected polycarbonate in a single mold, resulting in the appearance of transparent like crystal cursory look fragile, but in fact strong and stable. "It has a mix of materials and styles based on our shared memories. We all own this piece in a way. The chair is well balanced; I try to be balanced myself," Starck said in an interview with the Dallas Morning News.
