Babesta Beat AW16

F amed I talian design brand Kartell has taken their signature plastic-molding technology into the kids’ sphere and the result is pop art magic. Plastic silhouettes have been transformed into contemporary furniture and toys appealing to a child’s sense of play and a parent’s sense of style. Phillipe Starck, and an A-team of internationally known designers are behind these playful pieces for 3-8 year olds. We love this mashup of elegance & quality with a fresh, lighthearted charm.
