Kartell
Founded in 1949 by Giulio Castelli, the Italian design house Kartell started in car accessory design before shifting to furniture, lighting, and home accessory design in the 1950s. Kartell is famed for its groundbreaking use of plastic in modern design, transforming how people view this material. Iconic designs include the ""Componibili"" modular storage units by Anna Castelli Ferrieri and the ""Universale"" stacking chair by Joe Colombo.
Kartell has worked with acclaimed designers like Philippe Starck, Patricia Urquiola, Enzo Mari, Piero Lissoni, Vico Magistretti, Alberto Meda, Ferruccio Laviani, and Ron Arad. At the forefront of contemporary interior design, its resume of awards includes several Compasso d'Oro awards, the oldest industrial design award in Europe.
