BOZO

1994

Meet Elvis, Nestor, Kif Kif, Turlututu, Bozo and Bozo Junior. Selected by Philippe Starck in the International Design Year Book 96, the objects and lights in the BOZO collection fall into Character Design, a trend that is usually found in the world of video games, animation, comics and manga. Here applied to the world of objects, the act of graphically representing characters brings us a desk lamp, a wall lamp, an ashtray and a jewelery box. Between science-fiction and poetry, with its colorful circus palette and reincarnated plastic, the BOZO collection establishes a new family of heroes, each with their own personality and strong lines.
