"I like to open the doors to people's brain." ‐ Philippe Starck
Whenever we discover an object or a place designed by Philippe Starck, we enter a world of wall‐to‐wall imagination, surprises and fabulous fantasy. For more than three decades, this unique and multifarious creator, designer and architect has been a part of our daily lives by creating unconventional objects, whose purpose is to be "good" before being beautiful, and iconic destinations that take the members of his "cultural tribe" out of themselves and, most importantly, towards something better. Introduction Philosophy Designs Design Style Bibliography

No, not for beauty. We have to replace beauty, which is a cultural concept, with goodness, which is a humanist concept.
the beauty of intelligence?
yes. of intelligence. The elegance of intelligence and the beauty of happiness.
