Famous designer says Apple will reveal 'revolutionary' product within 8 months
Acclaimed French designer Phillippe Starck revealed in a recent interview that he has been working with Apple on a "revolutionary" new product that will be revealed within the next 8 months.
Starck revealed the information in a radio interview with France Info, as discovered by HardMac. No further details were given on what the product may be.
"Indeed, there is a big project together which will be out in eight months," Starck said, according to a translation. He cited Apple's "religious cult of secrecy" for declining to divulge any further information, though he did say the new project is "quite revolutionary." Starck also revealed that he met regularly with Apple co-founder Steve Jobs before he passed away last October. The designer said he would see Jobs around once a month in his Palo Alto home for seven years, and he now meets with Jobs's widow, Laurene Powell, when he is in California.
