Ero|S| Armchair

Ero|S| by Kartell is the swivel armchair designed by Philippe Starck, characterized by an egg shell that combines seat, backrest, and armrests in a single volume. The curved profile opens at the front and envelops laterally the person sitting, while the central support leaves the area underneath free. Designed in 2001, it celebrates its twenty-fifth anniversary in 2026 with a reissue that updates surfaces and color combinations. The shell is made of polycarbonate and rests on a die-cast aluminum base. The new Mat Soft Touch finish introduces a matte and soft-to-the-touch surface, which accompanies the continuity of the forms. In the variants white, anthracite, greige, and burgundy, shell and structure are coordinated in the same color: a solution that gives the armchair a uniform presence, suitable to become a color accent in the living room or to accompany a table in the dining area.

The Special Edition 25th Anniversary instead offers the transparent shell in the crystal version, matched with the base with shiny titanium finish. The transparency reveals the design of the shell and the junction with the support, while the metallic surface introduces reflections at the base. The celebratory edition thus joins the four matte versions, offering a different interpretation of the same design through the relationship between color, light, and materials.
