Bonheur du jour Armchair
by
Kartell
Comfort is an essential requirement that deserves to be counted as a universal human right. Imagine an object capable of embodying this concept to perfection and you come up with the BONHEUR DU JOUR armchair by Philippe Starck, the very idea of wellbeing. With lines that are clearly defined yet welcoming, BONHEUR DU JOUR is more than a chair... it is an invitation to rest. Its broad dimensions softly enclose your body, delivering an unprecedented sense of relaxation. BONHEUR DU JOUR is a manifesto for comfort in which design and functionality come together
About Kartell
Founded by Giulio Castelli in 1949, in the early years Kartell took its first steps to produce the distinctive design that would come to epitomise the ‘Made in Italy’ label.
In 1988 the company was acquired by Claudio Luti, the son-in-law of Giulio and Anna Castelli who had a background in fashion. The sensibility that Luti had developed under the Versace fashion house, with a love for perfection and tasteful design, heralded a new start for the brand. Luti sought collaborations with designers and architects like Philippe Starck, Ron Arad, Antonio Citterio, Ferruccio Laviani, Piero Lissoni, Patricia Urquiola, Mario Bellini, Alberto Meda and Vico Magistretti, who were responsible for those products that soon came to symbolise the brand. The fresh approach to materials dictated the new direction and brought real turning points for Kartell: studying, manipulating and enriching materials resulted in an end product which offered unprecedented characteristics.
