Philippe Starck’s philosophy and previous work
Philippe Starck
▸ B orn in Paris, France in 1949
▸ K nown as the Enfant Terrible
of the design world
▸ Is strongly committed to
environmentally-friendly
products, such as mini powergenerating windmills for outside
your home, urban hybrid bike/ scooters and solar-powered boats, to name a few.
Axor has been working with the
designer Philippe Starck for 20
years. In 1994, they took the
industry by surprise with Axor
Starck. In conjunction with the
Salon d’Eau, the groundbreaking
concept of a modern living room/
bathroom in one. This collection
became a revolutionary part of
bathroom history.
Philippe Starck is a tireless free
spirit and one of the most brilliant
designers of our time. Time and time

designs and makes us think. Starck’s
creations are inspired by his vision
of a better world.

is
to
create
more

The time has come again to create
a new dimension in bathrooms.
And who better than Philippe Starck
to create a revolutionary new of
using water.
With Axor Starck Organic, Starck
creates harmony between design
and technology, ecology and
economy — and the head and the
heart. According to Philippe Starck,
harmony is precisely what we need
most as humans.
This new collection was created
specifically to appeal to both the
head and the heart.

It’s nature’s way to sustain by using
only the bare minimum.
For years, Philippe Starck has focused on designing products that do more with less. But nature
provides the best examples of elegant minimalism: A delicate branch or petal, or the ideal of the
human body — lean and efficient, an understated beauty that derives from its function and purpose.
With Axor Starck Organic, Axor and Philippe Starck achieve their goal of doing more with less.
Bold design, innovative controls and water efficiency come together to create an extraordinary
product and a collection that is bursting with organic energy and ecological values.

The faucet was stripped of anything unnecessary.
Leaving only its essence: Organic, minimalist design.
The Axor Starck Organic design is sculptural and characterized by slender beauty.
The two handles are harmoniously integrated into the faucet body.
▸ Unique, organic design: Soft shapes and flowing transitions
▸ Minimalist form: The handles and faucet body meld into one
▸ H armonious design in all handle positions, and from all angles
▸ Continues the design legacy of the Axor Starck family
▸ H armoniously blends into any bathroom environment

How pleasant can water feel? Unbelievably voluminous
with low water consumption.
The wide shower spray guarantees a particularly
sensual experience with water. As when showering,
the hands are enveloped in exhilarating water
droplets. Yet the new jet uses less water than
conventional faucets.
▸ New aerator with 90 micro spray channels:
Softer, more voluminous shower spray with
an experience comparable to that of a
Raindance AIR handshower
▸ A broad, generous shower-style spray for
maximum water coverage
▸ 0.9 GPM flow rate:
Up to 60% water savings vs.
standard 2.5 GPM flow rate

The innovative controls enable us to more consciously
experience the sustainable use of water. The water volume
and temperature are separately controlled.
The Axor Starck Organic Single-Hole Faucet is the next step in the evolution
of faucets. Instead of the typical single-hole faucet handle which controls
temperature and volume simultaneously, the temperature control is positioned
at the top of the faucet, while the frequently-used handle for controlling the
water volume is positioned lower — on the spout itself.
Advantages of Separate Operation:
Temperature Control
▸Preset your preferred temperature
°F
▸Harmonious design in all handle positions,
and from all angles
▸Helps prevent droplets and smudges, since the temperature control rarely needs to be touched
▸New, clear hot/cold markings:
Cold water = green (energy-saving);
Hot water = orange
● On/Off
Volume Control
▸Greater cleanliness and convenience with the
control directly on the spout
▸Normal position at 0.9 GPM:

How much ecological thinking has gone into this faucet?
More than just a revolutionary water experience with a
low water consumption of just 0.9 gallons per minute.
Axor Starck Organic not only minimizes the use of water — but also the energy needed to heat
the water. Additionally, resources are also conserved in the manufacturing process: The faucet’s
efficient hollow body construction uses less material and therefore requires less energy to produce.
Intentional pre-selected cold setting ensures
that water is not unnecessarily heated.
Hollow body construction uses approximately ⅓ less
brass than a similarly-sized conventional faucet.
Efficient 0.9 GPM shower spray delivers a unique
experience with water — at an exceptionally low
flow rate.

The organic, minimalist design language flows harmoniously found
throughout the entire collection.
All Axor Starck Organic products were inspired by nature. The powerful design language
and elegant appearance characterize the whole collection, which offers products for all
areas of the bathroom.
▸ Four faucet models for the washbasin, in a range of heights, as well as a wall-mounted faucet
▸ Concealed and exposed thermostatic mixing valve solutions for shower and bath
▸ A range of unique accessories in the Axor Starck Organic design
▸ A harmonious blend of organic and geometric elements, the versatile design of
▸ Axor Starck Organic can be easily combined with other collections

The perfect symbiosis: Organic and minimalist design
The powerful design of Axor Starck Organic exudes energy, and blends harmoniously with clean,
minimalist interiors. In the example below, the nature-inspired design of the single-hole faucet blends
seamlessly with the natural materials and the modern design of the architectural elements.

◂ Stunning contrasts: The
flowing contours of the faucet
come together with the
minimalist Starck 2 countertop
washbasin by Duravit. ▾
◂ Axor Starck Organic
blends perfectly with different
washbasins — shallow or
deep, wall-mounted or
countertop. Here, the organic
shape of the faucet and the
washbasin complement each
other perfectly.
A combination of organic and geometric shapes, the exposed and
concealed mixing valves from Axor Starck Organic offer a variety of
design options for the shower.

iBox. The porter has an integrated
outlet for the handshower hose.
Striking, powerful organic design is also found in the
extraordinary tub fillers.
▴ The freestanding tub filler (available January 2014) features
an integrated handshower. Thanks to its organic, minimalist
design, it looks great with a wide range of tub styles.

Inspiration and realization:
Planning your bathroom.*
Feeling good in the bathroom has nothing to do with room size, but with good planning.
The versatility of Axor Starck Organic is evident in both large and small rooms, as well as
in the broadest range of style worlds. This includes individual styling, a suitable lighting
concept and architectural solutions that make the bathroom a better place to be.
The Organic, Minimalist Bathroom:
A Contrast of Powerful Shapes and Sensual Materials
▴ Nature
The curved, floor-to-ceiling
window lets in huge amounts of
daylight and creates interesting
shadows. The interior opens
up into the natural world.
▴ Faucet Positioning
Thanks to their organic shape,
Axor Starck Organic faucets
look great in any position —
whether on the left or the right
of the washbasin.
*All bathroom planning concepts were designed by the Ippolito Fleitz Group architectural practice in Stuttgart.
▴ Skylight
The skylight above the
washbasin and the shower
creates a refined yet
comfortable atmosphere in
the bathroom.
◂ 170 Sq. Ft.
The ideal organic, minimalist
bathroom, planned in an area
of 170 Sq. Ft.: Indoors and outdoors,
nature and architecture, bathroom
and bedroom all merge into one.
The open shower area turns the
room into a sensual spa. The toilet
and bidet are discreetly separated
from the wellbeing area.
▴ Travertine
The monolithic, architectural core
of the bathroom is designed from
sensual matte shell limestone.
▴ Oak
The brushed natural wood floor
gives of a sense of energy and
vitality; it reveals a wonderful
patina as it ages and radiates
warmth.
▴ Petrol
The powerful, intense shade on
the wall and ceiling joins the
bathroom and bedroom and is
a modern statement.
32
33
The Sensual Bathroom:
Emotional and Atmospheric
▴ Soft materials, indirect light and structured
fabric wallpaper with a floral pattern create an
atmospheric and natural atmosphere. The
space-saving, wall-mounted washbasin Starck 2
by Duravit (above) or the K-2075 by Kohler
(below) integrate into the room perfectly.
▴ 70 Sq. Ft.
This 70 Sq. Ft. floor plan illustrates how you
can save space yet still create a comfortable
bathroom environment: The focal point of
the bathroom is the washbasin in front of the
window behind which the toilet area is located.
Despite the smaller space, there is also a floorlevel shower with a drying area.
The Baroque Bathroom:
Ornamentation, Unusual Materials, Pleasantly Subtle Lighting
34
35
▴ This solution promises an elegant appearance with powerful colors,
shimmering materials and baroque-like furniture. Two minimalist washbasin
shapes contrast with the baroque bathroom style: As a circular countertop
washbasin Starck 1 from Duravit (above) or as a wall-mounted, powerfully
pure form (below).
▴ 130 Sq. Ft.
A higher quality of living in the bathroom can be
achieved by dividing the wellbeing and the functional
areas: The toilet and the shower are both separated by a
glass door, which makes the small room appear larger.
The Natural Bathroom:
Organic Forms at Their Best
▴ The large dark wood console and the leather-look
tiles highlight the bathroom’s natural character. The
bathroom elements are all organic, from the faucet
to the Axor Massaud vessel sink (above).
▴ 160 Sq. Ft.
Here, we give you an example of how it is possible
to fulfill the desire for exclusive comfort and a
respectful use of water in an area of 160 Sq. Ft.: Large
windows put you in touch with nature.
The Puristic Bathroom:
Striking, Contrast-Filled and Elegant
36
37
▴ Minimalistic. There are no distractions; free from superfluous clutter.
What remains is a clear, striking character created through pure,
high-quality materials and shapes, such as the countertop washbasin
solution (above) or the wall-mounted version (below).
▴ 110 Sq. Ft.
The room appears open yet is sensibly partitioned: This
effect is created by the clearly structured room layout
and the separation of the shower and toilet from the
rest of the bathroom. The 110 Sq. Ft. also provide
enough space for a freestanding tub and a washbasin
console, which offers a great deal of countertop space.
Intelligent features set ecological
and technological standards
▾ Faucet Shower Spray
The faucet’s innovative shower spray sets new functional and
ecological standards. It creates the sensation of a high volume
of water, offering optimum functionality.
▾ Normal and Boost Spray
The water volume can be controlled gradually, with click-in positions
for 0.9 GPM normal spray, and for 1.3 GPM booster setting.
5°
▴ Aerator
By moving the aerator 5° in either direction, the water direction can
be optimally adjusted to the shape of the basin. The silicone aerator
allows you to easily wipe away limescale deposits. This aerator can
be replaced with a standard aerator, if desired.
▴ Adjustable Spout
The default operation of the spout is designed for a right-handed
person. However, it is possible to remove the spout and reinstall at
80° for optimal left-handed use.
▾ Temperature Limitation
The temperature can be preset. To reduce energy costs and protect against
scalding, the maximum temperature can be limited. This is particularly useful
in public areas and hotels, as well as in homes with children.
▾ Filter Screen for Angle Valves
Small filter screens catch dirt particles from the pipelines and help
ensure the faucet properly functions. The filter screens should be
regularly cleaned to prevent blockages.
38
39
▴ Thermostatic Technology
With their thermostatic technology, all the exposed installation
products in the shower and on the bathtub offer reliable
convenience and safety: The near-instant rectification of pressure
and temperature fluctuations protects users against scalding. In
other words, once set, the temperature remains constant.
▴ Axor ShowerCollection
Axor Starck Organic can be installed using iBox or Axor ShowerCollection
roughs, depending on preference. The 5 x 5-inch modules can be
combined with Axor ShowerCollection modules, such as the showerhead,
shower module and accessories.
