An armchair/character, with an organic outline, perhaps anthropomorphous, conceived with leather directly fixed on a fiberglass skeleton. A tribute, to the great Carlo Mollino and to the Danish design of the 50s, led by Starck with impeccable mastery. The frame is the result of a complex and skilful construction: a first outer shell made of Baydur is fixed on a steel core which is then attached on another Baydur shell and on a polyurethane foams layer.

In this connotation Toy is unique even within the design corpus of Philippe Starck.
As a reinterpretation of Costes chair, King Costes alters its size and increase its firmness while confirming the absolute recognition of this image and its durability against trends alternation.
“MT”, or the initials that calls these pieces designed by Ron Arad, are pronounced in English as “empty”. The void is the key element of this project. The volume, made through a rotational molding, is in fact carved and shows provocatively the inside, finished in different colors. From the typological point of view also worth […]
