The revolutionary injection-molding techniques used to create the Uncle Jack Sofa are also used to create his smaller brother, the Kartell Uncle Jim Armchair. As such, this armchair has the same sinuous lines and solidity as the sofa. It is molded out of a single piece of transparent polycarbonate with a tall, supportive back that flows into wing-like arms. Designed by Philippe Starck.
