Re-thinking kitsch

I just love anything by Phillip Starck but these Mademoiselle chairs are on a different league altogether!

Designed by Starck for Kartell, this clever design for an arm chair is perhaps one of the first-ever to combine two aesthetic qualities: materiality and transparency. The transparent polycarbonate structure offers a sturdy support for a comfy seat in yummy fabric-covered expanded polyurethane. Available at Lifestorey.
