A Lou Lou for Lou-Lou

My daughter Emmylou is a constant companion on my chair expeditions. She patiently waits as I ooh and ah and sit, rearrange and sit again. I want her to appreciate good design sense, so you can imagine my delight when I was discovered a way to share it with her. While visiting Ella and Elliot, a furniture store for 'the modern baby', we-along with our friend and photographer for the day Shelley from chapped lips and all- found a chair with her name on it, literally.

The LouLou Ghost by Kartell is the baby version of the famous Louis Ghost by Philippe Starck. It is an exact replica of the larger version, in style, material (the indestructible polypropylene) and ergonomic support. 


It encourages little ones to recognize classic lines and shape. Lou certainly enjoyed her time in it:


At Ella and Elliot, you can order this chair in other colours. The price for the Ghost is very affordable at:


Kartell doesn't appeal to your child's taste? They also have the classic Panton Junior and rumour has it they may soon have the Barcelona Chair Mini. You can find Ella and Elliot at 188 Strachan Ave, right across from Trinity Bellwoods Park. Take the Queen streetcar and get off at Strachan. You can't miss it!
