mr. impossible

we took a few pictures of the milan presentation of 'mr impossible' by philippe starck for kartell
'mr. impossible' armchairs by philippe starck


the chairs are made of two transparent or batch dyed polycarbonate frames, joined together by laser technology


first presented at the 2007 milan salone del mobile, 'mr impossible' will be on sale in all kartell’s flag stores from april, 2008.


the seal of the two oval shells creates a bi-colour, three-dimensional effect


processing techniques that consist in the welding of two shells: the transparent structure and the seat,
in a full-coloured and translucent version, are joined together
