Ester, designed by Patrick Jouin
Ester is a mix of elegance, ergonomics and functionality
2023 marks for Pedrali the tenth year of collaboration with the world-renowned French designer Patrick Jouin. The partnership started in 2013 with ester armchair and reflects the combination of the creative expression of the designer and the know-how of the Italian company.
From the first armchair, a true collection was born, selected for decorating the best starred restaurants, luxury boutiques and flats in the world's great metropolises.
ester is a mix of ergonomics, elegance and functionality. It is a precious monolith, complemented by refined die-cast aluminium legs and characterised by soft and graceful lines. ester’s great comfort is ensured by the seat made of polyurethane foam with elastic belts.
ester has been selected fo the most renowned settings over the years, including some prestigious restaurants of the starred chef Alain Ducasse.
ester armchairs and barstools furnish BBR by Alain Ducasse, a modern, energic and vibrant environment in the historical Bar & Billiards Room at Raffles hotel in Singapore. Again ester bastools, presented in this case in emerald green velvet, fit in the Voyages restaurant by Alain Ducasse, nestled in the heart of the impressive Morpheus Hotel in Macao. Located in another fascinating and alluring setting, the fine neutral colour of ester armchairs is combined with the blue colour of the boiserie and the natural wood in its walnut essence at the Blue restaurant by Alain Ducasse in Bangkok. To mention a few more, Esterre restaurant by Alain Ducasse at Palace Hotel in Tokyo and Mix restaurant by Alain Ducasse in the prestigious Emeral Palace Kempiski in Dubai.
Even the multi-starred chef Antonino Cannavacciuolo chose this refined and successful collection to characterise some of his restaurants. ester armchairs, selected in a distinctive red tone, give colour to the restaurant within the splendid setting of Villa Crespi in Orta San Giulio. Recently, the same armchairs were chosen in the warm shade of brown to welcome guests in the Cannavacciuolo Countryside restaurant in Ticciano, an idyllic village on the Sorrento Hills where the green of the countryside intertwines with the blue of the sea.

In addition, ester features in some projects of a more contract nature, such as Biome in Paris, a futuristic architectural project redesigning the skyline of the 15th arrondissement of Paris. The French national airline Air France also chose chairs and barstools from the ester collection to furnish the lounges of the Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris and the Franz-Josef Strauss airport in Munich.
