Design

Unlike most other New Design artists, Starck's work does not concentrate on the creation of provocative and expensive single pieces. Instead, his product designs are of usable household items which Starck himself helps to market for mass production. His products are often stylized, streamlined and organic in their look and are also constructed using unusual combinations of materials (such as glass and stone, plastic and aluminum, plush fabric and chrome, etc.). Two of these designs include stylized toothbrushes (1989) and a sleek juicer dubbed the Juicy Salif created for Alessi in 1990. The Juicy Salif, in fact, has since become an affordable and popular cult item. A notable and world famous interior design job performed by Starck was for the Café Costes in Paris 1984. He has also been involved in the relaunch of the World War II-era Navy Chair in the U.S., designing a classic furniture collection around it.

Hotels

In 1988 Starck was commissioned by famed nightclub impresario Ian Schrager, Studio 54, to refit the Royalton Hotel on New York’s E 44th Street. It was a design moment that has since changed the hotel industry. Boutique hotels, where there lobby becomes a destination for guests and locals a-like, where design is tantamount, became the industry buzz. The partnership continued in New York at the Paramount, and then spread to LA with the Mondrian, Miami with the Delano, London with both St. Martins Lane and the Sanderson, San Francisco and the Clift, and finally back to New York with the Hudson Hotel. The look and feel has been widely copied, notably at Starwood’s W hotels, however not very successfully. The original Studio 54 logo. ...
