What is a Blue Ghost Chair?
An Icon, Reimagined in Hues.
The original Ghost Chair, a design icon conceived for Kartell by the legendary Philippe Starck, revolutionized modern furniture with its revolutionary all-transparent polycarbonate construction.
It captured the essence of a classic Louis XVI armchair and made it virtually disappear.
Our Blue Ghost Chairs pay homage to this legacy while injecting personality.
Crafted from high-grade, tinted transparent acrylic or polycarbonate, they retain the beloved spectral silhouette but cast everything around them in a soft, aquatic glow. The result?
A piece that is simultaneously bold and ethereal, substantial yet weightless.
This is not mere decoration. It’s functional art. The seamless monoblock design is surprisingly robust, capable of holding significant weight while maintaining its graceful lines.
It’s a testament to how innovative materials can redefine a timeless form.
Why Choose Our Blue Ghost Chairs? The Design & Durability Promise
1. Unmatched Aesthetic Impact:
Your space tells a story. A set of Blue Ghost Chairs around a glass dining table creates a breathtaking, layered effect.
In a sunroom or patio, they seem to capture and hold the sky. For events like weddings or gallery openings, they add a curated, contemporary flair that photographs spectacularly.
The color is infused throughout the material, ensuring it never fades, peels, or scratches off.
2. Engineered for Real Life:
We believe beauty should be resilient.
Premium Material: We use either impact-resistant polycarbonate or scratch-resistant cast acrylic, chosen for clarity, strength, and UV stability.
Structural Integrity: The monoblock shell is engineered for optimal weight distribution, supporting up to 330 lbs (150 kg) comfortably.
All-Weather Versatility: While we recommend care, high-quality ghost chairs are suitable for both elegant indoor settings (dining rooms, home offices, hotel lobbies) and covered outdoor use (patios, conservatories).
3. The Psychology of Space & Color:
Blue is the color of serenity, trust, and intelligence. In a transparent form, it brings these calming qualities without visual weight.
Blue Ghost Chairs promote an open sightline, making small rooms feel larger and cluttered spaces feel orderly. They encourage conversation and create an atmosphere of clean, modern sophistication.
Endless Styling Possibilities: Your Vision, Our Canvas
The true genius of the Blue Ghost Chair lies in its chameleon-like ability to adapt.
The Modern Dining Sanctuary: Pair four or six around a minimalist oak or white marble table. Add neutral linens and a single bold centerpiece. The chairs will define the space without overpowering it.
The Creative Corporate Touch: Line a conference table with them to promote “transparent” communication. Use them in reception areas to signal innovation and style.
The Event Planner’s Secret Weapon: Create cohesive magic for weddings (especially “something blue”), cocktail parties, or product launches. They effortlessly elevate any theme.
The Accent Piece: A single Blue Ghost Chair in a reading nook, beside a vanity, or in a hallway becomes an instant sculptural artwork.
Pro Styling Tip: Contrast is key. The chair shines against warm backgrounds—think wooden floors, brick walls, or lush green plants. At night, under strategic lighting, it becomes a glowing jewel in your room.
