BIOGRAPHICAL CATALOG OF THE MODEM'S COVERS AUTHORS

2003 DESIGNER Modem Women’s Milano Modem Women’s Paris Fall-Winter 2003-2004 Covers by PHILIPPE STARCK 112 Philippe Starck, French designer known since the start of his career in the 1980. In the eyes of this accomplished citizen of the world, sharing his ethical and humanist vision of a more equal planet is a duty, if not a moral imperative, that results in unconventional projects, bearing fertile surprises. It’s easy to guess his course of action: an object must be useful before being beautiful. “ Subversive, ethical, ecological, political, humorous… this is how I see my duty as a designe r.” said Philippe Starck Heralding the phenomena of convergence and dematerialisation, Philippe Starck aims straight for the heart, highlighting the essential, extracting the structural minimum of every object, in order to offer creations and propositions closest to Man and Nature, best adapted to the future. Inventor, creator, architect, designer, artistic director, Philippe Starck is certainly all of the above, but more than anything he is an honest man directly descended from the Renaissance artists.
