Kartell Ero |S| Chair by Philippe Starck, 1998
Designed by Philippe Starck for Kartell in 1998, the Ero|S| Chair is a striking blend of mid-century inspiration and contemporary material innovation. Its sculptural, egg-shaped seat—crafted from polycarbonate—offers both visual lightness and structural durability. Taking cues from iconic designs like Saarinen’s Tulip Chair, the Ero|S| modernizes classic forms with a sleek, glossy finish and versatile base options, including a swivel pedestal, chrome legs, or casters.
This chair is a perfect reflection of Starck’s design philosophy—a commitment to democratic design, timeless beauty, and functionality. He reimagines everyday objects with a balance of sophistication and playfulness, proving that great design can be both accessible and enduring. More than two decades later, the Ero|S| remains an icon, seamlessly fitting into offices, luxury interiors, and contemporary homes alike.
