Ghost means shadow, trace, appearance, spirit, soul. Only glass is able to transform this abstract concept into physical object. Operating this transformation was
the challenge won by Cini Boeri and her collaborator Tomu Katajanagi when they decided to give glass the shape of an armchair, i.e. a container that would not contain liquids, but human bodies.
Forged by the technical and aesthetic skill of Vittorio Livi, Ghost was born, the glass armchair that, presented
for the first time at the Milan Furniture Fair of 1987, was immediately awarded in a contest of the magazine ‘Interni’, which invited the visitors to choose the most innovative product.
