This Philippe Starck chair has always been one of the pieces of furniture I dream about buying when I'm a millionaire (I can dream, right?). This post-modern re-imagining of the classic Louis XV! arm chair is brilliant and will remain an eternal classic. Great as a dining room chair or a chair for a vanity/makeup table

an oldie yet a goldie...from Philippe Starck, he reinvented the classic Louis XVI armchair ... made of polycarbonate available in translucent colours: crystal, pale smoke grey, straw yellow, sunset orange, crystal green and ice blue or GLOSSY BLACK... can be used indoors or outdoors... also available with the back decorated with patterns... love this idea and end product!

Silhouettes are really impacting fashion and interior designs recently! Graphics and images of iconic and historical furniture and accessories are everywhere. The lovely thing about these pieces is that they usually represent ostentatious items like overly embellished chandeliers, or gilded Chairs from the Rococo Period which held the horror vacua mindset (lavish designs which left no unoccupied area). The clean lines of a silhouette give us the bare bones of a great original design. That is why they work so well in modern interiors. The Louis Ghost Armchair is a wonderful example of this. The reinventing of the classic Louis XVI chair is achieved with flare by eliminating literally everything but its shape.
