Citrus-squeezer "Mysqueeze" - design Roland Kreiter, 2010
As many people will have noticed, it's been a few years now that Alessi hasn't presented any new projects by Starck. Not to worry: both of us are obviously going through a period where it's hard to find the same harmony that at other times has allowed us to create truly extraordinary objects. Harmonies that migh well be found again. So in this context I was surprised to get a call from Philippe in the summer of 2009.
He wanted to tell me that, as a juror in the "Pure Creativity" competition held by Mydeco, he had awarded a project by a young German designer, Roland Kreiter, which he thought deserved to be produced. This seemed to me like a worthy tribute to "Juicy Salif" (1990), the most controversial Citrus-squeezer of the twentieth century. (Alberto Alessi)
