Design Classic gets a face lift

PRLog (Press Release) – Jun 30, 2009 – Philippe Starck designed the Starck 1 collection for Duravit 15 years ago, inspired by primal forms such as the bucket, and the old-fashioned hand pump and nail.
Today, the entire Starck 1 range of bathroom products is regarded as a modern design classic, with one piece - "the barrel" - that serves as its outstanding focal point. This conical vanity unit has become Duravit's most successful individual furniture item, and now in 2009 new for Duravit have added two fresh versions to the range in eye-catching black and white high-gloss finishes.
Paint finishes are a familiar sight in the home and are certainly finding their way into the bathroom. At the same time, however, long-term acquisitions such as those in the bathroom also call for elegant timeless furniture design. With its eye-catching shimmer, the 560 x 825 mm Starck barrel fits the bill to perfection.
The inside of the Starck 1 barrel is 58 cm in diameter, providing plenty of storage space. A glass shelf with chrome rail provides room for towels and toiletries, while the barrel's curved doors open wide for easy access. The shiny chrome handles add a perfect finishing touch to the ensemble.
The new high-gloss paint finishes round off the classic Starck quintet, which is also available in American Walnut, Pearwood and Macassar real wood veneers.
