Philippe Starck Wants to Save the World, Packs His Toothbrush and Pencils

Philippe Starck is out there saying things again. Trying to get everyone riled up once more, following his “my design work has been unnecessary” comments in a recent interview, he recently spoke to the AFP, but now with a more focused, design-can-save-the-world point to hammer home. And personally, we think it’s a lot more effective. Although he talks in his familiar abstract ways, he gets a little more into his plans for being just the right guy for saving the planet and why it’s important for him to cast off his usual design gigs and get into important stuff.
