Philippe Starck (born 1949) is one of the world’s most famous and prolific designers. From luxurious hotels and high-profile restaurants to his inspirational reworkings of everyday household items like the juicer, Starck’s elegant designs have consistently been guided by principles of functionality; every object is designed to be at the disposal of its users. Before Starck’s designs reach these users, however, they begin life as ideas on a page, and it is this side of Starck’s work that Philippe Starck: Secret Drawings addresses for the first time. This volume includes thousands of never-before-seen drawings and sketches, published to accompany an exhibition at the Centre Pompidou Málaga conceived as an extension of the 2003 Philippe Starck exhibition at the Centre Pompidou in Paris. This book offers “something intimate and secret,” as Starck himself writes—insight into the very core of the designer’s creative process.
