Everywhere, we are sur-rounded by superfluous objects. We must get back to the basics.” (Philippe Starck). He perceives the soul of everyday objects and tells us their stories, breathes life into them. He creates ambiences which put our souls to rest. And he retraces our fundamental needs. Freshness, cleanliness, hygiene.
Starck 1 - The Poetry of Reduction
We need to stop and think about the basic facts of life - a state- ment of somebody whose design provides answers instead of easy affirmations. For his bathroom series, Starck delves deeper. He’s interested in matter per se, not in the matter of fact. Essence is the consequence. Getting back to basics. A cliché, certainly. But also: A philosophy, a principle of life and design.
“We are getting tired of the materialistic way of life, we can’t stand it any longer, it’s stifling us. Everywhere, we are sur-rounded by superfluous objects. We must get back to the basics.” (Philippe Starck). He perceives the soul of everyday objects and tells us their stories, breathes life into them. He creates ambiences which put our souls to rest. And he retraces our fundamental needs. Freshness, cleanliness, hygiene.
