Overview
Design by Philippe Starck with Eugeni Quitllet.
Made in Italy by Kartell.
Kartell's famous little armchair with the egg-shaped seat, the first in the world to be laser-welded, is transformed by its surprising new look. The solid color finish gives Super Impossible a sensual, striking look in the single color glossy black version, or in the elegant two tone optical version with a white upper shell and black lower shell and legs.
Kartell's Mr. Impossible chair was born from the (seemingly impossible) desire to unite two oval polycarbonate shells without using any adhesive, achieving an indestructible seal. With its organic lines, the snug and comfortable Mr. Impossible is a modern classic.
Suitable for indoor/outdoor use.
