About the Designer
Philippe StarckPhilippe Starck France (1949 - )

He remembers having spent his childhood under his father's drawing tables, passing hours stitching, cutting, gluing and grinding, disassembling bicycles, motorbikes and other objects. Endless hours, an entire life spent dismantling and reassembling anything that fell into his hands, reconstructing his surrounding world. In 1982 he renovated Palais de l'?lys?e at President Mitterrand's request, in 1984 Caf? Costes became Le Caf?, between 1988 and 1990 he transformed the Royalton and the Paramount in New York into the new classics of the hotel world, and in the following years he promoted architectonic tours de force in Japan that saw him become the leading exponent of expressionist architecture. His respect for humanity and the environment has also been recognised in France, where in 1995 he designed the Ecole Nationale Sup?rieure des Arts D?coratifs in Paris and in 1997 the control tower of Bordeaux Airport. Abroad, he continues to shake the traditions and culture of the world's major cities, with the interior design of the restaurant at Hong Kong's Peninsula Hotel (1994), the Teatron in Mexico (1995), the Delano Hotel a Miami (1995), the Modrian in Los Angeles (1996), the Asia de Cuba restaurant in New York (1997), as well as an entire series of ongoing projects in London and elsewhere. His skill lies in being able to transform instantly the object of the commission into a place filled with charm, pleasure and encounters. He tirelessly modifies everyday life, exalting the deepest roots of existence in his changes. He applies himself to the design of ashtrays, lamps, handles, cutlery, candleholders, teapots, vases, watches, scooters, mopeds, desks, beds, taps, bathsà in short, life. His increasing fascination with life has now led him to create clothes, underwear, footwear, glasses, food, and always with the conviction that his design respects nature and the future of humankind. In the exhibits of museums all around the world, in Paris, New York, Munich, London, Chicago, Kyoto and Barcelona, his work is considered to be that of a master. He has received numerous prizes and awards: designer of the year, the Oscar de luminaire (1980), the title of Officier des Artes et des Lettres (1985), the Grand Prix National de la Cr?ation Industrielle (1988), Compasso d'Oro ADI (2001), Show Boats in Munich (2003), and many others. Philippe Starck began his collaboration with driade in 1985.

Phillipe Starck's innovative design and Kartell's meticulously researched technology merge to form the exquisite La Bohème Stools, which draw their inspiration from the curved forms of vases. Made of transparent polycarbonate, these stools are durable, functional seats for indoor and outdoor use that have the appearance of two delicate vase designs. La Bohème 2 features a low base with a flared top, while La Bohème 3 has an amphora-style shape. Available in six bold colors, La Bohème stools are the perfect seats to add instant charm to the garden, balcony, kitchen or living room. Or choose the vase option to complete the effect.

best stool/side table ever

I bought three and they are amazing. You can use them as side tables, or as stools. They light up a dull room, by adding tons of personality. I bought them to add three stools around a small kitchen table for when my daughters come to visit. They are great!! They don't occupy much visual space because they are transparent. And since they are so light, I'm moving them around a lot: when I have guests I use them as side tables by my couches. I'm sooo happy!!

Lightweight in both senses of the term!

I use this as a bathroom stool although I fear it might not be sturdy enough.

Bought it twice!

I bought this to replace one I already had. A few years ago, someone put something hot on it, causing it to crack. It is a little pricey, and I hesitated to spend the money again, but the transparency and the color make it perfect for the spot between the two chairs I have against the wall across from my desk. I look at it all day long. It is a visual delight. I'm not going to try to sit on it.
