Free unveiled its new Freebox. Entitled ‘Freebox Revolution’, designed by Philippe Starck, the device consists of both Freebox Player and Server. Freebox Revolution weaves its web in the digital home by offering a NAS drive, a Blu-Ray, a game pad and even a Freestore to download games and applications.
"This is the first time I make a box for the house. A box that produces ideas, information, and exchanges. It was therefore essential that the box itself is about words that are also producers of fertile surprises, visions, transgression, of all humanity and richness of life. It is revolutionary because we can do anything and everything with it. We end up realizing that boxes such as the Free do not have limitations, only those set by ourselves. Only our imagination stops the limit of what can be done with it. That is why it is revolutionary, without limit there is no control. Power to the people is now available thanks to Free. Its name does it justice." Ph. Starck

Rotation moulding is the star of the show in this garden range: Magic Hole – a sofa and two armchairs of different heights characterised by an original coloured “pocket” housed inside the armrests.
The three pieces project a clean silhouette with straight surfaces ending in nicely rounded curves and slim sectional legs.
Comfortable, light, shock resistant and weather proof, the Magic Hole garden collection is perfect for outdoor use.

Made in four different versions, the lamps play with the idea of colour contrasts and are inspired by the free-standing and the suspension models of the two most celebrated outdoor light. And add the essential final touch to the outdoor décor scenario created with pieces from the new PLAY with DEDON collection.

Pieces that can be redesigned to achieve a personal fit, ordered online, produced upon request, and which assume the client’s direct, emotional and creative inputs to make the design relationship more liberating and fun.

Small stackable monobloc chairs in polypropylene available in four colours: white, yellow, orange, grey. Although produced with highly industrial technology (pressure die-cast iron and galvanized steel), even if suitable for both indoor and outdoor use, and despite being intended for many, PIPE proves that design is and must remain a subtle game. A game of details.
"The collection S+ARCK BY FLETCO is not about carpets or rugs.
It is a magical game. Imagine a game where one never loses.
A game where all cards are good, all combinations are successful, all shots are allowed, all the rules are to be respected or invented.
It’s even easy.
Magic squares for my friends in general and especially my architect friends.
Have the courage, have fun.
For you, for us." Ph.S
Forms that evoke the lines of classic furniture but with a contemporary accent in its transparency and plastic offer an intriguing game of eye-catching perspectives and reflections.
“For years I kept looking for a good chest of drawers and a good night table for myself.
I could never find them.
To console myself, I did an evocation of one and called up the spirit of all those chests of drawers that may have existed and that I never ran across.
Something minimum, an invisibility which is nevertheless very necessary in our humble daily life.” Ph.S

Starck transforms the Briccole di Venezia into plates.
“I’ve lived in Burano, these last 25 years.
Venice is far away,
The fog on the lagoon is thick, menacing, endless.
In it you are lost for ever.
But the Briccole are there.
By day they are noble.
At night indispensable.
In the fog they are essential.
Everything about the Briccole has a noble elegance.
Even and above all the wood, which now, humbly, ends its splendid life in our homes, in our hearts.
Your friend whose heart is in Burano.” Philippe Starck
