Philippe Starck Paperback – February 15, 2000

Great book, arrived safely packaged well.A+++

This is a good overview of Starks work and his career. Lots of photos though I would have liked a bit more text about him and his work.

This book epitomises who Philippe Starck is. There are a lot of surprises & fun in this book that got me grinned from ear to ear. Who needs literature of him when the pictures of his works speak louder than words? Having said that, essays written by the great man himself at the end of the book potrayed him as a great visionary, a man ahead of his time rather than being a populist culture buffoon that some of my friends described of him. In today's rat-race world, it's good to have someone like him producing items that manage to stir our emotions & making our hearts miss a beat. In more ways than one, he's very French: unpredictable, daring, romantic, playful, enchanting, elegant,& just be himself! Viva La France~~ I can't help wondering what's next?

This is an updated and expanded version of this Taschen title originally published in 1996 as part of their "Jumbo" series. This second edition has been published at a more convenient size as well as at half the price of the original. The first edition was the most complete volume on the full breadth of Starck's prolific output. This second edition retains all of the visual impact and stylish layout of the original while including numerous Starck projects of the past several years. IF YOU BUY ONE BOOK ON THE WORK OF PHILIPPE STARCK - THIS IS THE ONE TO GET! *****

Très bon livre avec pas mal de texte (dans trois langues, Allemand, Anglais et Français comme d'habitude avec ce genre d'édition chez Taschen). Je l'ai acheté surtout pour ça car trop souvent pour Starck on a que des livres ne comprenant que des photos, c'est bien, mais avec du texte c'est mieux. Bon les photos c'est toujours les mêmes, les produits présentés pareil mais là au moins on a un format qui permet d'apprécier convenablement les photos. Bref pour faire une étude et un compte rendu sur Starck ce livre m'est grandement utile. Je recommande. Acheté auprès du vendeur ManuBooks01 que je recommande car très pro.

Was alles in ein Leben passt. Philippe Starck zeigt hier einen Teil seiner Vielfalt. Das Möbelthema ist aus heutiger Sicht schon fast Schnee von Gestern. Doch alle anderen Projekte zünden weiter. Sehr anregend insgesamt und wieder einmal eine großartige Buchgestaltung, typisch Taschen. In diesem gebrauchten Exemplar waren hinten bei den Mitwirkenden viele echte Sommerblümchen. Vielleicht stammt es von einem Mitglied der Gang?

Alles super

El libro muy bueno, el estado regular.

Un capolavoro di libro e un capolavoro di uomo. Starck è un genio ed è sempre un passo avanti.Non può che sorprenderti.
