Nanimarquina Bicicleta Rug by Nani Marquina & Ariadna Miquel


Nanimarquina Bicicleta Rug


Nanimarquina Bicicleta Rug

The Bicicleta was designed by Nani Marquina & Ariadna Miquel for Nanimarquina in Spain. Each rug is made using 130/140 bicycle inner tubes, collected and processed in India. Made using 100% recycled material, this exclusive ecological rug champions caring for the environment. In addition to being a declaration of intentions by raising awareness about using biodegradable or recycled products, it represents a point of transgression for today’s most avant-garde spaces. This design was born through researching the possibility of using recycled rubber to create new textures. The solution arose during a journey to India: using inner tubes from bicycle tires, the most common mode of transportation there. The result: a conceptual, sustainable, new element.

The famous Louis Ghost Chair is an iconic piece of modern furniture. When looking for a nice modern accent piece of modern contemporary furniture, we are always drawn to unique, modern, timeless design icons, which probably explains why we love the modern contemporary furniture by Kartell. Never content to offer just a regular chair, they came up with this brilliant transparent chair, the Louis Ghost, which Philippe Starck designed for them. An iconic yet practical design that is a perfect complement to both traditional and contemporary interior decoration. Representing the intersection of classic baroque style and innovative modern design, the Louis Ghost Chair is both enchanting and comfortable. In a short time this chair has become an iconic piece in the canon of Philippe Starck for its instantly recognizable Louis XVI chair shape pared down to an essential form and boldly reinterpreted in plastic. Made of transparent or batch-dyed polycarbonate in a wide range of color choices, the Louis Ghost Chair is sturdy and durable while displaying a delicate, ethereal appearance. This versatile armchair, suitable for indoor and outdoor use, has been featured in numerous magazines and adds elegance and lively panache to any number of settings.

The Louis Ghost chair was designed by Philippe Starck for Kartell in Italy. This modern chair is a true modern design classic. Who else but the famous modern designer Philippe Starck would dare to mess with a king like Louis XV? Reinventing the classic Louis XV arm chair for Kartell, the playful and iconic modern Louis Ghost Armchair is a postmodern triumph of technical innovation and historical style. Translating the varied lines and formal geometry of its predecessor into a single form of translucent or opaque black or white injection-molded polycarbonate, it is a robust chair with not a single weak point. A generously sized seat and medallion backrest offer leisurely comfort, as do the subtly curved armrests. Resistant to scratches and weather conditions, it is suitable for indoor and outdoor use. Stacks six high. Recommended for residential and commercial use. Manufactured in Italy by Kartell. A truly gorgeous chair that will work in a number of different interior settings.

The Kartell Louis Ghost armchair is a comfortable armchair designed in the Louis XV style. It is the quintessence of baroque revisited to dazzle, excite and captivate. The Louis Ghost Chair is the most daring example of injected polycarbonate in a single mold. Despite its evanescent and crystalline appearance, Louis Ghost is stable and durable, scratch and weather resistant and stackable to 6 high. It has great charm and striking visual appeal and brings a touch of elegance and irony to any space.
The creation of this project was an authentic, technological challenge for Kartell, both the particular shape of the medallion-shaped back and the arms presented considerable difficulty. Evanescent and crystalline, like the progenitor of the series, La Marie, Louis Ghost is stable, robust, and resistant to all blows, scratches, and weather conditions. A chair with a strong, charismatic personality of guaranteed aesthetic appeal.

Victoria Ghost Chair by Kartell

Here are some larger images of the neoclassical Victoria Ghost Chair. The Victoria Ghost chair was designed by Philippe Starck for Kartell in Italy. Victoria Ghost is a modern interpretation of a classic Louis XV-style chair. Philippe Starck deliberately designed this chair with a smaller than usual seating area; the seating surface measures only 15" wide. This may be small for people with overly well-endowed behinds, yet, it is perfectly fine for most of us. Kartell's Victoria Ghost Chair is perhaps the most elegant modern design chair ever made. This iconic piece of modern furniture is the ideal dining chair or side chair. It is suitable for both indoor- and outdoor use.



The Kartell Victoria Ghost Chair is a chair born of classic Baroque lines whose rounded backrest recalls the shape of antique medallions, whilst the seat is linear and geometric. Made from a single molding of crystal-clear polycarbonate, which has a transparent, 'ghost-like' appearance, hence its name. It is stable, comfortable, robust, scratch resistant and weather resistant. Once more we find a chair created thanks to technological know-how which Kartell has amassed over the years to create articles which have made the company world renowned. The Victoria Ghost is a chair with great charm and personality which fits elegantly into any style of surrounding. This modern chair is a true modern design classic and it will most certainly compliment any interior.
