Kartell Frilly Chair
Design Patricia Uroquiola, 2008
Batch-dyed polycarbonate
Made in Italy by Kartell
Frilly, Patricia Urquiola's new transparent polycarbonate chair for Kartell, was born from the idea of an industrial sculpture transformed into a charming ergonomic shape. The wavy effect covering the entire structure gives this chair a light and soft look, like pleated fabric, for a sensual, fun and feminine optical effect. The wide range of colors is reminiscent of natural elements, giving the chair a further light and lovely touch.
Born in Oviedo, Patricia Urquiola attended the Madrid Polytechnic and the Milan Polytechnic Universities where she graduated in 1989 with Achille Castiglioni as her supervisor of whom she was assistant at the Milan Polytechnic from 1990 to 1992. From 1990 to 1996 she was at the Product Development Office for De Padova where she co-operated with Vico Magistretti. In 1996 she became design responsible at Studio Lissoni and Associates. In 2001 she opened a studio of planning where she looks after design, installations and architecture. This brilliant Spanish architect is a phenomenon not to be lost sight of.
