Design by Joe Colombo, 1968. Kartell's classic 4867 - Colombo Chair was the first industrial seat in the world created by a single injection mold and it offers multiple design solutions still to this day. Suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, the cylindrical leg is cut down the middle to enable side-by-side positioning with other chairs, and the grooves at the side of the seat allow for snug stacking. There is a nice little opening in the seat back that makes a handy grip for moving the chair around as well as for draining water should it get wet outside. Can be stacked up to 3 high. To simplify the recycling process, the various components of Kartell products can be easily separated and reduced to elements made of one single material. Moreover, the plastic parts of each product have a clearly printed universal Recycling Identification Mark. Notes: Suitable for outdoor use. Assembly required.

He studied painting and sculpture at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Brera, the academy of fine arts, in Milan and then architecture at Politecnico di Milano University. In 1958, Joe and his younger brother Gianni took over the family business, which produced electric appliances. Using the factory as a playground, he started to experiment with new construction and production technologies. In 1962 Joe Colombo opened his own design office, which specialized in interior design and architecture projects for industry and retail stores.
