Starck is the son of André Starck, an aeronautical engineer who often inspired Philippe in his work. He studied at the École Nissim de Camondo in Paris. While working for Adidas, Starck founded his first industrial design company, Starck Product, which he later named Ubik, after Philip K. Dick's novel, and began working with manufacturers in Italy (Driade), Alessi, Kartell and internationally, including Drimmer in Austria, Vitra in Switzerland and Disform in Spain.
In 1983, then French President François Mitterrand, on the recommendation of his Minister of Culture, Jack Lang, chose Starck to renovate the president's private apartments in the Elysée Palace. The following year, he designed the Café Costes. Starck's production expanded into furniture, decoration, architecture, street furniture, industry (wind turbines, photo booths), plumbing, kitchens, floor and wall coverings, lighting, household appliances, office equipment such as staplers, kitchen utensils, tableware, clothing, accessories, toys, glassware, graphic design and publishing, food and vehicles for land, sea, air and space.
