Kartell

THE MATERIAL REINVENTED

Kartell took plastic and made it luminous, sculptural and permanent. Sixty years on, the icons are still in production.

A pioneer, by deliberate choice

Kartell is recognised for its pioneering use of plastic, transforming it into vibrant, transparent and sculptural furniture through advanced technology and collaboration with renowned designers including Philippe Starck. The brand’s philosophy blends innovation, functionality and aesthetics in equal measure. The result is a catalogue of instantly recognisable pieces — the Louis Ghost Chair, the Componibili storage units — celebrated worldwide and still unmistakably Kartell.

Technology in the service of form

The transparency and colour that define Kartell are the product of advanced material technology rather than surface treatment. Italian design discipline governs how that capability is used: proportions are considered, silhouettes are resolved, and the technical achievement remains subordinate to the object. Collaborations with world-class designers keep the collections evolving without displacing the pieces that established them.

Durable, versatile, unmistakable

Kartell furniture stands out for durability, lightweight versatility and a modern style that elevates a space. Timeless Italian design, eco-conscious production and a genuine blend of practicality and artistry allow each piece to make a bold, sophisticated statement in any setting. The furniture moves easily between rooms and roles, and it does not date.
