Philippe Starck ‘Lola Herzburg’ Freestanding Sink & Mirror for Raspel, c1985

Philippe Starck’s design journey began with a diverse upbringing. Raised in a creative environment – his father was an aircraft designer and his mother a painter – Starck developed an innate appreciation for art and design from a young age. He studied at the École Camondo in Paris and later founded his own design firm, which laid the foundation for his groundbreaking career.

Starck’s approach to furniture design is marked by his willingness to experiment with new materials, shapes, and forms. He possesses a remarkable ability to blend the functional with the unexpected, resulting in pieces that are not only useful but also thought-provoking and conversation-starting. His designs often feature a sense of playfulness and whimsy, challenging traditional notions of furniture’s appearance and purpose.

One of Starck’s distinguishing features as a designer is his embrace of technology. He has been an early adopter of new manufacturing techniques and materials, pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in furniture design. This embrace of technology has led to innovative creations that combine futuristic aesthetics with functional utility.
