Designed by Tokujin Yoshioka for Kartell, the Matrix chair emerged from the continual dialogue between design and technological innovation. This state-of-the-art chair is characterised by its three-dimensional latticework shell, which gives it lightness and sophistication. The result of a long research and design process, this innovative seat is made using injection technology. The polycarbonate layers create a structure that takes the form of wire mesh. Thanks to the combination of this exclusive technology and the identity of its Japanese designer, Matrix is a chair with unparalleled resistance, durability and versatility. Produced by Kartell, the Matrix chair works in all types of spaces thanks to its sleek lines and the different finishes available.
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.
