Componibili Orange: Kartell’s Iconic Limited Edition

With its glossy, pop-art orange inspired by 1970s aesthetics, the Componibili Orange breathes new life into one of the most famous pieces of Italian design. This collector’s edition, limited to just 500 pieces and available exclusively on Made In Design, reimagines Kartell’s iconic rounded silhouette in a sunny shade of orange. This vintage-inspired take feels like a return to its roots for this icon, which was born in the late 1960s.

Componibili Orange: An Icon Born in the 1960s

In the late 1960s, interior design was evolving, and plastic opened up new possibilities for design. Lightweight, easy to live with, and conducive to new forms, it fueled the emergence of more free-spirited and mobile furniture. It was against this backdrop thatAnna Castelli Ferrieri designed the Componibili for Kartell, which has since become a timeless classic of furniture design.

Her idea was resolutely modern: to create functional and versatile storage that was no longer confined to a single room or a single use. Whether in the bedroom, living room, kitchen, or bathroom, the Componibili can adapt to different functions as needed. This freedom of use continues to contribute to its remarkable modernity even today.

With this edition, the orange Componibili reconnects with the spirit of the era that saw its birth. A signature color of the 1960s and 1970s, orange evokes the pop-inspired, optimistic, and daring interiors of that period, when Plastic revolutionized furniture design. Its glossy finish further intensifies the hue and highlights the piece’s curves. More than just a new color, it’s a true return to its roots, reimagined with a contemporary twist.

From Storage to Collector’s Item

The Componibili has long since transcended its status as a small, functional piece of furniture. Having become an icon of Italian design, it is now on display in the collections of the Centre Pompidou in Paris.

This pop-orange version adds an even more exclusive dimension to the icon. Only 500 pieces are available, exclusively on Made In Design. A rare series that transforms this design classic into a collector’s item, intended as much for design enthusiasts as for those seeking a unique piece that won’t be found just anywhere.

Why is the orange Componibili exclusive?

This pop orange hue is the result of a collaboration between Kartell and Made In Design to offer an exclusive take on the famous Componibili. Inspired by the bold colors of the ’60s and ’70s, this vintage color scheme pays homage to the era that gave birth to this icon of Italian design. Only 500 pieces of this edition have been produced, and it’s sold exclusively on Made In Design. A rare, collector’s-edition series that reimagines the Componibili in a color you won’t find anywhere else.

Where should you place the orange Componibili?

The Orange Componibili fits in almost anywhere. Its compact size and three storage compartments allow it to easily adapt to different functions depending on the room and your needs. It can be placed directly on the floor or set on a piece of furniture, a countertop, a Desk, or a Shelf to play with heights and create a more graphic composition.

In the bedroom, its 58 cm height makes it a practical bedside table. In the living room, it transforms into an end table next to the couch for a lamp, a book, or a few decorative objects. On the desk, it holds supplies, Notepads, and accessories. Inthe entryway, it provides extra storage without blocking the walkway.

In the kitchen, it can hold tea towels, accessories, or small kitchen items. In the bathroom, it keeps beauty products within easy reach. And when the warm weather arrives, it can even be moved out onto a patio or balcony as a small side table.

Can a Componibili be used as a bedside table?

Yes, the Componibili is particularly well-suited for use as a stylish bedside table. At 58 cm tall and 32 cm in diameter, it provides a practical surface next to the bed while adding three storage compartments. Books, glasses, chargers, or small items disappear behind its sliding doors, while its tray holds a bedside lamp or an alarm clock.

What can you store in a 3-door Componibili?

The Componibili 3-door unit lets you organize many small everyday items thanks to its three levels of storage. In a bedroom, it holds books and accessories. In an office, it holds supplies and notepads. In a bathroom, it holds beauty products and linens. In the living room, it holds cables or remote controls. Its sliding doors make it easy to conceal the contents to keep the space visually tidy.

Can multiple Componibili units be stacked?

No, the current Componibili Classic units are not designed to be stacked on top of one another. They are available as fixed configurations of two, three, or four units. Their structure is a single unit, and the individual units cannot be separated or added to. The original concept, however, was based on modular elements, which were the very foundation of the Componibili’s modular design.

Can Componibili be used in a bathroom or outdoors?

Yes, this model is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use and is moisture-resistant. Its ABS construction and smooth surface also make it easy to clean. It therefore fits naturally in a bathroom, but also on a patio or balcony as a small storage unit or accent piece.
