DELIGHT:The front lobby of the Delano hotel in South Beach exemplifies the cutting-edge style
employed by celebrity designer Philippe Starck. Now he is going to decorate the Ritz Plaza
hotel across the street from his famed Miami Beach creation.

NOW HIS STYLE WILL BE SEEN ACROSS THE STREET.

fl
Celebrity designer Philippe Starck's
surreal interiors still define the Delano,
South Beach's most famous hotel.Nearly
a decade later, Starck is returning to
South Beach to design another hotel —
across the street from his original cre-
ation.
F The new owners of the Ritz Plaza
hotel have signed Starck as their
designer, his first South Florida hotel
� commission since the Delano,whose 1995
opening launched the minimalist aes-
thetic that remains the South Beach stan-
dard.
Ritz Plaza's owners say Starck plans an
updated version of his take on the style
•
South Beach needs—one that's warmer
than the Delano's famed white-on-white
look.
"I don't think we're going to go for—
C.W.GRIFFIN/HERALD FILE to use the pun—as'stark'a design,"said
THE GRAND DESIGNER: Philippe Starck Paul Makarechian,one of the developers.
speaks of his love of design in 2002 "It will have a little bit more of a connec-
at Icon in Miami Beach. •TURNTOSTARCK,4C
