NEW MISSONI-COVERED MADEMOISELLE CHAIR

Take a seat, Mademoiselle. This smashing new chair by Kartell was designed by Philippe Starck and upholstered in Missoni fabric. We shot it recently for the cover of Design Book, D Home’s annual resource guide for the trade. I love its delicate Lucite legs (they’re really polycarbonate, but that’s not a sexy word). The Mademoiselle also comes upholstered in two other different Missoni fabrics, but don’t you agree that the black and white rocks? See them, buy them, at Scott+Cooner.

I tried the chair out, and it’s not terribly comfortable. I’d still buy a pair; they look so good and are just the right size for apartments. $800 each, give or take.
