THE GHOST CHAIR AND WHY WE LOVE IT




The Louis Ghost Chair


Since it's debut in 2002, the Louis Ghost chair by Philippe Stark has been a love of mine . As a reinvention of the Louis XV chair, it is the epitome of historical style in colaboration with technological innovation. Created in a single form of injection-molded polycarbonate, this piece is a clear winner in terms of durability and function - virtually scratch resistant, water resistant, and suitable for indoor and outdoor use. The instant classic has been praised and adored by designers with a fun and whimsical take on style. We are drawn to its sculptural essence yet visual weightlessness. Ranging from $100 to $410 (original Philippe Stark version), it is sold for a fraction of what most designer pieces cost. While it is available in opaque black and white, the clear one calls out to me the most.
