Ketabi Bourdet dedicates its latest display to a series of 1980s works by Philippe Starck. Not as well known as his more recent creations, the pieces feature strong geometries and a rigorous colour and material palette. Discussing some of his pieces' names (Mickville, Stanton Mick, Wendy Wright, just to name a few) in a book from the time, the designer said: "My furniture often has curious names... They are taken from Ubik, a novel by Philip K Dick which fascinates me by its very real intuition of modernity. I had said, and I think I’m going to deny it, that I would stop creating furniture when I had used all the names contained in this book. There is only one left."
