Pair of Romantica chairs by Philippe Starck, Driade edition, 1986

DESIGNER : Philippe Starck

Producer : Driade

This chair seems to have been conceived by Starck as an aircraft structure. This may be a tribute to his father, an aeronautical engineer, or to his own interest in aviation.

It was designed in 1986 and produced by Driade between 1988 and 1993.
