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.
Philippe Starck has made history. Over the years, his many creations have turned into classics and his name has reached cult status. What more can a man offer, who has given the world lemon juicers that are alien look-alikes, toothbrushes from outer space, TV sets carved from cork? - Edition 2: The bathroom at source. And once again, the world has become a great deal richer. Designwise. But also in life-style.

Philippe Starck takes us into a world where the superfluous becomes superfluous. Into a bathroom, which makes do without pomp and circumstances. With his acute sense for the real thing the designer unmasks decorations and ornaments for what they are: Kitsch. He proves this point with his bathroom ranges Edition 1 and Edition 2 - a designer's symposium on minimalism, made by Duravit. And now we are taking it one step further. More sizes at minimized prices. For design novices as well as for the advanced. Outstanding and unmistakable. Complete and ideal for large and small projects: offices, schools, hotels, airports and industry. Or for your home.
