Kartell

The famous italian company had a very impressive stand designed by Ferruccio Laviani. It covered 900 sqm and the company's entire collection since the beggining till the brand new products. Below some shots of the booth and the details of the new products that enlarge the company's colorful collection.



The omnipresent Starck presented the series of coffee tables Top Top with their combination of different materials, shapes and finishes; the rotating moulded stool Royal T and the, at least strange if not more, stool Chicos.
For the first time Marcel Wanders joined the selected group of designers working for Kartell, he presented Stone, a jewel-like stool with an irregular surface.





Also Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec joined for the first time, they designed a lovely transparent container, Panier , available in a wide colour palette. Dark brown, grey shades, acid green, the new season protagonists, the new comer colour: light blue and the king colour: orange.




Optic is the new stool designed by french Patrick Jouin; the cube has a geometrically faceted surface but the effect is as natural as water. The prolific (and always surprising) designer Patricia Urquiola presented the final version of her T Table , with decorated top.




My own favourite designer Alberto Meda presented a folding chair made of honeycomb plastic and metal. Antonio Citterio introduced a refined, high performance trolley, Flip. Piero Lissoni showed a series of upholstered sofa and armchair with transparent structure and high visual impact print.
