About the Item
Gorgeous Pair of «Ghost» chairs, J.C. de Castelbajac for Acrila, Acrylic glass, after Philippe Starck – France
Spectacular pair of high-quality French acrylic glass chairs, inspired by the design of the Louis Ghost model created by Philippe Starck for the Italian manufacturer Kartell in 2002. Many designers have been inspired by Starck's original design to create different pieces of furniture, furniture where shape, image, transparency and light are combined. Specifically, this pair is attributed to the French designer Jean Charles de Castelbajac, for Acrila.
They represent the perfect combination of tradition and modernity, as the model is actually an avant-garde stylization of Louis XVI style chairs in an absolutely modern material. Originally, Louis XVI chairs, a symbol of elegance, were made of wood, with upholstered back and seat. In this case, acrylic glass offers an ethereal and crystalline appearance, creating the piece in a single block, without the need for screws or adhesives.
Taking advantage of the transparency of the material, the structure of Louis XVI chairs is imitated, both the back, the seat and the four legs, all in white, and the “upholstered” in pink.
About Acrila
Acrila is a French design company based in Bordeaux, founded in 2007 by the married couple Jean-Christophe Bernard and Isabelle Bernard. It is recognized for its innovative approach, creating contemporary acrylic furniture, with unique and extravagant designs.
Its founder developed a printing process through which graphic images can be printed directly on acrylic thanks to an industrial printer. Each piece of furniture is therefore hand-made, going through the printing, modelling and polishing processes.
The material used, acrylic glass, is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, scratch and sun resistant. It does not yellow over time. Jean-Charles de Castelbajac is one of its leading designers. Iconoclastic and avant-garde with a flair for Pop-Art, he combines fashion with art, creating fun and colourful designs.
About Philippe Starck (1949 – ) and Kartell
Philippe Patrick Starck is a contemporary French architect and industrial designer, world renowned for the functionality and aesthetics of his designs. Throughout his career he has created everything from hotel interiors and luxury yachts to toothbrushes and teapots. Yet for each project, Starck has maintained an instantly recognisable signature style: a dynamic, elegant, fluid and ingenious look, full of originality.
The Italian company Kartell is internationally renowned for having brought a material like altuglas into the interior furnishing culture. It was founded in 1949 by Giulio Castelli, a chemical engineer whose aspiration was to create objects from this material, and from the very beginning began a fruitful collaboration with the great designer Gino Colombini. From the very beginning, Kartell's aim was to "brighten up the domestic landscape".
