Mixture between technology and aesthetics, reliability and reflection – Mr. Impossible is a cocoon cut out of plastic … a chair that highlights all the Starck style.
Name of the product : Mr. Impossible
Designer : Philippe Starck and Eugeni Quitllet
Description : Mr. Impossible stems from the – apparently impossible – idea of joining two oval bodies without using glue, to obtain an indissoluble weld. The two laser welded shells give the seat a two-tone, three-dimensional look.
