French Designer Says He's Working With Apple on a Revolutionary Project

Posted April 13, 2012 at 1:07pm by iClarified
Renown French designer Philippe Starck says he has been working with Apple on a revolutionary project which will emerge in 8 months, reports HardMac.

The comments were made in an interview to France-Info radio and to the newspaper Le Figaro. Starck didn't reveal any more details; however, his statement will likely revive rumors of an Apple television.

HardMac suggests perhaps he has been working on a new remote:


If we had to bet, we would put our money on the revolutionary remote control that will be associated with the future Apple TV set. This is particularly in this area that innovation in design and ergonomic are needed, and Starck and his team are known for that.

Interestingly, Starck also reveals that he regularly met with Steve Jobs.

"For seven years I came to see him once a month in Palo Alto and elsewhere Monday I go there, because even though he is dead, now I will see his wife. We liked to talk all things interesting," he said.

Apple need to come out with something revolutionary, otherwise they're doing down in a hand basket like all the great names did, eventually!

Haha...My sentiments exactly, but you beat me to it. They probably meet at that hotel in S.F. with all the giant white flags surrounding it. Must be force of habit.
