REFINED REPRODUCTION Collection

Philippe Starck

Philippe Starck (b. 1949, Paris) is one of the most influential designers of the modern era, known for his wide-ranging work across furniture, interiors, architecture, and everyday objects. Guided by his philosophy of democratic design, Starck has created some of the world’s most iconic pieces, from the Juicy Salif citrus squeezer for Alessi to landmark hotel interiors and yachts. In 2002, he redefined contemporary furniture with the Ghost Armchair for Kartell, a transparent reinterpretation of the Louis XVI armchair that became a global design icon. His work continues to blend elegance, innovation, and accessibility, shaping how we live with design today.

2002

Ghost Armchair - Louis - Set

The Ghost Armchair draws inspiration from the Louis XVI-style armchair, reimagined by designer Philippe Starck in 2002. By utilizing transparent polycarbonate, Starck transformed the traditional ornate design into a minimalist, modern piece that challenges perceptions of material and form. This innovative approach not only pays homage to classical French design but also introduces a versatile, ethereal quality that resonates with contemporary aesthetics.

BEHIND THE DESIGN

Interesting facts you might not know

The chair reinterprets the ornate silhouette of an 18th-century Louis XVI armchair, distilling it into sleek modern lines.

Made from a single piece of injection-molded polycarbonate, it showcases advanced plastic molding technology that allows transparency, strength, and durability.

Despite its delicate look, the chair is stackable up to six high, scratch-resistant, and suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.

Here are famous places where you can find

London Fashion Week Front Row

London, United Kingdom

In a moment that bridged tradition and modernity, Queen Elizabeth II made her Fashion Week debut seated in a specially-cushioned Louis Ghost Chair. The chair’s transparent silhouette offered a striking contrast to the opulent surroundings—and allowed the monarch to rest comfortably during the show. Flanked by Anna Wintour and surrounded by the world’s fashion elite, the Ghost Chair became more than furniture; it underscored how style and dignity can coexist even in the most high-profile moments.

Waldorf Apartment

New York City, USA

Inside Blair Waldorf’s opulent dining room on Gossip Girl, the Louis Ghost Chair by Philippe Starck makes a surprising statement. Crafted from transparent polycarbonate, the chair evokes delicate elegance while standing out against richly traditional décor. For the show's set, these Ghost Chairs are often dressed up with champagne-tone slipcovers and plush cushions, adding warmth and a layered luxury to the formal dining space. The contrast between the modern, invisible form and the ornate, pre-war ambiance showcases how contemporary design can bring freshness and personality to classic interiors.
