Ed Mae Cooper wrote about Philippe Starck:
Starck recalls spending his childhood underneath his father's drawing boards; hours spent sawing, cutting, gluing, sanding, dismantling bikes, motor cycles and other objects [...] Several years and several prototypes later, the Italians have made him responsible for our furniture, President Mitterand asked him to change life at the Elysees Palace, the Cafe Costes has become Le Cafe, he has turned the Royalton and Paramount in New York into the new classics of the hotel world and scattered Japan with architectural tours de force that have made him the leading exponent of expressionist architecture.
Starcks' latest project with PUMA is great!

Very nice product design and advertising!
What more is there to say?
