Intentional unintentions of Philippe Starck
Usually, I think the eclectic aesthetic can become “cluttery” and really, who likes clutter? I think we are all trying to minimize the mess and cut back because, again really, who likes clutter? Obviously, this is why minimalism is so appealing. I think that minimalistic interior design, however, can lose the human connectivity and livability because it is almost too clean. So I present to you, a good balance, in Philippe Starck‘s work and if you are not familiar with it, spend a minute and get acquainted with him.

My son is terrified of bees because he was stung the very first day of preschool. He then decided he didn’t want to play outside or go near a trampoline (that is where he was stung) because he knew there was another one waiting to get him.
