▼ What is the significance of the Louis Ghost Chair by Philippe Starck?
The Louis Ghost Chair by Philippe Starck is a revolutionary design that perfectly blends the opulence of the Louis XV baroque style with modern minimalism. Crafted from a single injection-moulded polycarbonate, the design encapsulates innovation in both design and material technology.
The silhouette is ethereal due to transparency, with a design that is both iconic and timeless. Still, the Philippe Starck Ghost Chair offers more than simple aesthetic appeal; it provides functional versatility that is suitable for residential and commercial settings alike.
▼ How can you tell if a Ghost Chair is real?
An authentic Philippe Starck Louis Ghost Chair by Kartell includes several identifying elements. Genuine chairs can be verified from the embossed Kartell stamp of authenticity found under the polycarbonate shell.
The precise dimensions of an original Ghost Chair are calibrated by Philippe Starck for optimal comfort and aesthetic quality. Replica versions may have varying dimensions that impact comfort, visual balance, and usability.
▼ Why is it called a Ghost Chair?
The Louis Ghost Chair is named for its iconic transparent, almost invisible appearance, enabling each piece to blend seamlessly into any environment. This unique “ghost-like” design lends unique appeal to the chair, as it appears to take up less visual space to leave every room feeling open and airy.
▼ Do Ghost Chairs scratch easily?
While the polycarbonate material used in Ghost Chairs is highly durable, it is still susceptible to scratches with regular use. Maintain its clarity and finish by handling it with care, avoiding rough, abrasive materials that might lead to scratching.
▼ Is the Ghost Chair comfortable?
Yes, despite its minimalist and transparent appearance, the Louis Ghost Chair is crafted with ergonomic considerations. Its wide seat, slightly curved backrest, and quality construction ensure every use feels supported and comfortable—even for prolonged seating.




Philippe Starck
His first major project was the renovation of the Palais de l'Elysee at President Mitterrand's request, and in 1990 he transformed the Royalton and the Paramount in New York into a new hybrid called the 'boutique hotel'. His respect for humanity and the environment has also been recognised in France, where in 1995 he designed the Ecole Nationale Superieure des Arts Decoratifs in Paris and in 1997 the control tower of Bordeaux Airport Abroad, he continues to shake the traditions and culture of the world's major cities, with the interior design of the restaurant at Hong Kong's Peninsula Hotel, the Teatron in Mexico, the Delano Hotel a Miami the Modrian in Los Angeles, the Asia de Cuba restaurant in New York, as well as an entire series of ongoing projects in London and elsewhere. His skill lies in being able to transform instantly the object of the commission into a place filled with charm and pleasure. Starck's increasing fascination with life has led him to create clothes, underwear, footwear, glasses, food, and always with the conviction that his design respects nature and the future of humankind. Philippe Starck began his ongoing collaboration with Driade in 1985 and has since developed relationships with other Italian furniture manufacturers including Kartell and Cassina.
