Légère et graphique, Hiray est une collection de meubles pour l’extérieur, dessinée par Ludovica et Roberto Palomba pour la marque italienne Kartell. La collection très complète, comprenant des chaises, fauteuils canapés et tables, se caractérise par son travail du metal avec la technique du fil soudé. Le résultat est un motif essentiel et épuré, également imprégné d’émotion. Conçues pour resister à l’extérieur, les pièces de la collection Hiray Kartell se déclinent en plusieurs couleurs, qui se marient très bien ensemble. Pour les assises, des cousins adaptés sont également disponibles.

KARTELL
In 1949, Giulio Castelli founded the Italian company Kartell, which specialises in the manufacture of plastic goods. In 1963, he married architect Anna Castelli Ferrieri, who also became his collaborator. The Kartell collection is extensive, attractive and easy to use. Colour, play on meaning, transparency and unique shapes create unrivalled objects. Kartell soon became the symbol of "Made in Italy" design and offers a product catalogue composed of furniture, decorative accessories and lighting. They represent the icon of contemporary design. Kartell enjoyed global success thanks to its involvement in research and innovation, by using efficient production systems and increasingly modern technologies.
