Magis Big Will Table
BIG WILL TABLE
BIG WILL TABLE
Designed by Philippe Starck, 2015
Big Will table marks another chapter in a gripping story, in which the Magis phi- losophy and technology, with its friendly shapes and rigorous production, meets the creative spirit of Philippe Starck.
The Big Will table is actually equipped with two fixed legs ending with rubber pads and two legs ending with wheels that move easily. It’s interesting the contrast with the sober lines, the classic materials and the modernity of the ingenious wheel system.
Big Will’s most striking and characterful features are its wheels – positioned at the extending end of the table - and the die-cast aluminium structure, which comes either in a glossy finish or painted white or black. The top could bVe in tempered glass, acid-etched or in American walnut. Leaves for extendable version are in MDF laminate painted.
DESIGNER
PHILIPPE STARCK
“Subversive, ethical, ecological, politi- cal, fun: this is how I see my duty as a creator.” Philippe Starck.
Despite his thousands of projects – completed or in the making – his global fame and his tireless protean inventiveness, we must never forget the essential.
Philippe Starck has a mission and a vision: creation, what - ever shape it takes, must make life better for the largest number of people possible.
Starck believes this highly poetic, political, rebellious, benevolent, pragmatic and subversive duty must be borne by all, and he resumes it with the humour that has accompanied his approach since the earliest days: “No one is obliged to be a genius, but everyone has to take part.”
His anticipatory concern for envi - ronmental implications, his profound comprehension of contemporary mutations, his enthusiasm for imag - ining new lifestyles, his determination to change the world, his devotion to a positive reduction, his love of ideas, his desire to defend the intelligence of usefulness – and the usefulness of ph / Jean Baptiste Mondino intelligence – have accompanied one iconic creation after another… From everyday products such as furniture and lemon squeezers, to revolutionary mega-yachts, micro wind-turbines, electric cars, and hotels that aspire to be wondrous, stimulating and intensely vibrant places, Starck never ceases to push the boundaries and criteria of contemporary design.
His technological miracles are vectors of democratic ecology, focused on action and a respect for the future of both humans and nature. Predicting the phenomena of convergence and dematerialisation, Philippe Starck has always devised objects that demand the most from the least.
The solutions provided by his dreams are so vital, so essential that he was the first French - man to be invited to the legendary TED (Technology, Entertainment & Design) talks, conferences that have brought together such illustrious speakers as Bill Clinton and Richard Branson.
Inventor, creator, architect, designer, artistic director… Philippe Starck is all of the above, but above all he is a man of honesty, in the purest tradition of the Renaissance artists.
