Philippe
Starck
by Philippe Starck
Paperback448 pages, Rev edition, February 2000
$27.99Save
$12.00 off the list price of $39.99 
REVIEW EXCERPT: There
is no one way to describe Philippe Starck - architect, inventor,
pop star, philosopher, celebrity, and all of these par excellence,
but it is as a designer that he has made such a huge impact on contemporary
culture. Without a doubt, the preeminent maker and re-shaper of
our times, Starck has turned his hand to reinventing almost everything
we encounter in our public and private lives. From toothbrush to
toilet brush, desk lamp to chair, he accepts nothing and excels,
it seems, at everything.
Combining brilliant
form with effective function, Starck sees his mission as nothing
less than the re-imagining of our relationship to objects. As Starck
himself says, his designs are "non-products for non-consumers."
To him a "non-consumer" is "...an individual who
is alert and wary, but also open, creative, enthusiastic, and finally
extremely upstream and modern."The publisher, Pam
Sommers, Public Relations Manager, Taschen America , May 26, 2000.
