Kristalia is always looking for new talented designers, who can enhance its collection with innovative ideas, such as Ka-Lai Chan. Born in 1985, she recently obtained a degree from the Utrecht Academy of Arts but already has considerable experience in creating works of art and design projects, which have been presented at international galleries and fairs. “With my creations“, says Ka-Lai “I want to reveal the hidden value of everyday objects and materials, allowing people to see the beauty of things and experiment in an unusual way.”
Shellf was created in Ka-Lai Chan’s studio as a limited edition design object, which then became a standard product thanks to Kristalia technology. A combination of rectangular units in different sizes, in MDF with lacquer finish, are connected with invisible 45° joints. The visual effect is dynamic and well-structured: the young artist and designer got her inspiration from “an animal coming out of its shell”. read more

The TNP occasional table, designed by Christophe Pillet to furnish the Théâtre National Populaire, one of the most prestigious French cultural institutions, is a new and important protagonist for furnishing homes and community areas, both indoors and outdoors. Its cast iron base, personalised with the theatre’s logo, supports a square or rectangular top in bent sheet metal. The entire table has a powder-coated lacquer finish in three colours: white, black or the same shade of red used in the Parisian theatre.
Founded in Paris in 1920 by Firmin Gemier, the Théâtre National Populaire will re-open on 11 November, after restoration work has been completed, at Villeurbanne near Lyon.

In this recent interview Christophe Pillet tells about himself and the work in progress with Kristalia.

A night at the Triennale Design Museum of  Milan, during the opening of the new offices. They have been designed by the architect Michele De Lucchi and furnished with Kristalia’s furniture.

Ready to start: the new offices of the Triennale Design Museum have been settled down and are ready to work.
The opening has been held June 16, with the participation of  Silvana Annichiarico, Director of the Design Museum, and Davide Rampello, President of the Triennale di Milano.
Kristalia has been chosen to furnish the new rooms that house the management of the Design Museum. Seats, bookshelves and work-stations have been accurately selected in order to provide a working environment functional and elegant at the same time, in step with the striking location of the ” rediscovered courtyard”. It has been left unused during years and recently brought back to light with a project by the architect Michele De Lucchi.

A new challenging production by Kristalia.
