A chair deliberately abstract in its composition and, for this reason, comfortable in unpredictable ways. Seemingly carved into a block, Toy speaks a language of sharp and broad plans that make it different from other molded polypropylene chairs. In this connotation Toy is unique even within the design corpus of Philippe Starck.
The cultured and omnivorous voracity of Philippe Starck faces, in Neoz collection, the poetry of solid wood and the traditional archetypes form is reviewed. The result is a timeless collection characterized by straight lines as well as by a strong image.
Even a classical image, as a railed chair, in the hands of Philippe Starck acquires a particular connotation. In Pip-e, the sequence of horizontal elements, which create the seat and back definetly, takes on a strong chiaroscuro and goes, unexpectedly, to accompany the bending of the knees.
Neoz sofas, bed and day-bed emphasize the formal charateristics of the collection they belong to, by building a sort of living nest marked by the hem-stitched tissue whiteness, like past laundry, and the cushions’ softness. Large wheels, though, suggest it as an only termporary luxe.

Designed for both formal and casual settings, the details of Surface is refined with the plinth detail and the functional table top.
Kabu, curve in Japanese. With this name, I stress the conceptual process of the collection design. The light structure is dressed up with a technical fabric that becomes skin and wrap. The curvature generated as a result of the fabric tension on the structure highlights the desire for a lightweight, upholstered frame.
As a master in architecture, the Japanese, Ito has proposed few but extraordinary design works. Suki armchair, designed in 1987, is one of them: an object made mysterious by the use of a double steel mesh row intersected by many springs. This is an ideological Manifesto but, unpredictably comfortable.
