Kartell's Expansion Strategy Focuses On The UAE

(MENAFN- Dubai PR Network) The United Arab Emirates remains at the heart of Kartell's expansion strategy in the Gulf region, thanks to a dynamic market oriented towards luxury products characterized by a strong design element. Kartell aims to solidify its presence in this strategic region and seize the opportunities offered by one of the main global hubs for high-level lifestyle.

The goal is to open new spaces in the country, strengthening the company's commitment to implementing an increasingly extensive retail network capable of meeting the growing demand for high-quality design and lifestyle products throughout the region. A more widespread retail network is essential to reach a wider clientele and consolidate Kartell's position as one of the leading design brands in the Emirates. Alongside the expansion of physical stores, Kartell is also enhancing e-commerce to ensure greater accessibility to its products across the country.

'We are working to open our third store in Dubai at Nakheel Mall early next year and are also looking at potential expansion into Abu Dhabi,' comments Lorenza Luti, Marketing & Retail Director of Kartell. 'The ample spaces in our stores allow us to offer a comprehensive view of the entire range, including entire product lines. Our offerings adapt to various contexts, from private residences to hospitality projects, in harmony with the variety of cultures that meet in Dubai. This global approach reflects Kartell's desire to satisfy a cosmopolitan, sophisticated, and diverse clientele, composed of both local and international residents, always in search of the latest trends in design and lifestyle.'

'Her Majesty the Chair' embodies the object that permeates our daily lives, implicitly telling our story. Mr. Philippe Starck leads us to a new pinnacle with the H.H.H. chair - HER HIGHEST HIGHNESS. With unmatched elegance and graphic impact, H.H.H. defines the very essence of the human interacting with it, compelling them to take a stance. Indeed, what would we be without the act of sitting, posing before such a symbol of royalty and refinement? An object that transcends the mere concept of seating, transforming every moment spent on it into a true moment of regality. The structure is made from recycled material, and the seat is available in various finishes. But H.H.H. rises above the simple practical functions of a chair, becoming an emblem of style that enchants and inspires anyone who approaches it, thanks to the Kartell x Liberty edition, upholstered in six Liberty fabrics with vibrant floral prints featuring three designs from the historic English brand's archive, with five colorations created especially for Kartell. The chair's legs are offered in contrasting colors with the patterns to highlight the entire project's ensemble.

Faithful to its pioneering spirit in the search for new and diverse forms of technological innovation, Kartell has decided to take a step further in this direction by experimenting with a new 'graphic impression' technique in which, through highly technological molding, four floral and geometric patterns are proposed in different color versions. An ultra-modern and alternative variant in which Liberty prints are offered for an exclusive style that harmonizes perfectly with Kartell's spirit.
