Now that you mentioned it I looked it up, apparently it was not his intention for it to work haha.

 "It’s not meant to squeeze lemons, it is meant to start conversation"

Is this quote real? I dunno, maybe he did say it after he noticed the thing never worked :p

I do love it however! Even got the miniature version on my desk :)

this design attracts mostly because it's combining 2 dissimilar ideas, like a lot of captivating products do. grandfather hanging his tools on this is expected, changing the form of the silverware to fit the vibe is fresh. [no disrespect to gramps lol]

also i feel like Starck would have preferred that his juicer worked haha, just called it good after he found a form he liked and didn't wanna start over

Or thought of as a design. It's something familiar as many of us probably have some grandfather that made something like this for his tools but never as a design object.

Reminds me of Philippe Starch's citrus juicer that did the opposite , it's beautiful yet useless.

if the fork ain't looking like #5, i don't want it

(i've never actually thought of a dream set of cutlery tbh)

lmao. we all have our taste. what’s your dream set of silver?

i think i'd rather die than eat with that fork (and knife and spoon and teaspoon)

they look like a $2 plastic set from kmart 🤮

What good is form without function? IMO bad function is a bad design 💁 I like the concept though.
