Designed by Philippe Starck for Kartell, A.I. Lounge is a lounge chair that combines sustainable materials with comfort and a graphic motif to enhance the outlook and well-being of our living spaces. This lounge chair stands out for its lines, characteristic of the A.I. collection, which combine with an extremely comfortable seat. What makes the A.I. collection so special is that it is the first product family to have been designed by an artificial intelligence that has responded to the expertise of the Kartell brand and the input of designer Philippe Starck. Creative thinking, company know-how and artificial intelligence have come together to create a product that has been fully developed by an algorithm that respects the designer's and the company's parameters: to create a comfortable chair that meets all the structural requirements for strength and solidity.

Born in Paris in 1949, Philippe Starck is one of today's most original and prolific designers. Philippe Starck has become a hallowed figure of international design. The chairs and armchairs by Philippe Starck embody iconic, bold and timeless design, blending innovation, comfort and elegance in every creation. A self-proclaimed "autodidact" after a spell at the Camondo school, he was already a company director even before he came of age. An inspired Jack-of-all-trades, he has no hesitation in revisiting the styles and icons of the past. While he regularly works in the world of luxury, he is also credited with democratising design. He has worked extensively with a wide range of industrial partners, particularly furniture manufacturers such as Cassina, Driade and Kartell. The Mademoiselle bridge combines an airy polycarbonate structure with a comfortable seat in polyurethane upholstered in fabrics emblematic of various Italian designers (Missoni, D&G and Valentino). He won major prizes such as the Grand Prix National de la Création industrielle and the Honor Award from the American Institute of Architects. Philippe Starck describes himself as "a Japanese architect, an American set designer, a German industrial designer, a French art director and an Italian furniture designer". He also works with lighting and tableware manufacturers such as Baccarat and Flos on the KTribe collection.
