philippe starck 'masters' chair for kartell at milan design week 09

'we weren't born just today. there have been masters before us' said philippe starck.
' the masters chair brings to mind the lines of three great masters and three great masterpieces.
putting them all together they create a new product, a new project, a reflection on a new society.
masters is a project in collaboration with eugeni quitlet.'
