Philippe Starck

Philippe Starck
The pop star of design. Philippe Starck has been producing and realising ideas as long as he can remember. Although the sophisticated torture chambers he designed for his teachers as a schoolchild were confiscated at the planning stage, he had already cemented his reputation as an international interior designer and architect in his early twenties. From the legendary Café Costes via François Mitterand's private chambers in the Elysée Palace to a waste incineration plant, from teddy bear via telephone to table lamp, there is nothing he hasn't questioned and reinvented.
