Bill of Materials
Description
The Kartell magazine rack (often mistakenly called "Cartel"), designed in the 70s, is an icon of modern Italian design, an emblem of the plastic, functional, and playful style that made the Kartell brand famous worldwide
It is a design object made of molded plastic, created with clean lines and essential geometric shapes, yet soft and captivating
It generally consists of a rectangular structure with multiple vertical compartments to hold magazines, newspapers, or documents, and features a central handle that facilitates its movement
The original material — colored methacrylate or ABS — was available in a vibrant range of typical hues of the era, such as orange, brown, olive green, amber, or transparent smoked, all capable of capturing light and adding a touch of cheerfulness and modernity to home environments
From an aesthetic point of view, the Kartell magazine rack perfectly represents the philosophy of 70s design: a union of functionality and pop aesthetics, with a visual language that aims for lightness and practicality without sacrificing character
Today it is considered a collector's item, still highly relevant for its versatility and timeless style — an object that tells the story of the future as the seventies imagined it: colorful, elegant, and full of optimism
Today you can have this wonderful Italian design object in miniature, perfectly adapted to collect your business cards
You can print it in any bold color you desire: it will still look great and add a vintage touch to your desk
