Selected Quotations from International Media

"The celebrated, often provocative art book publisher opens its first U.S. store, and it's a beauty. We especially like the lounge area in the back with its black leather banquette, plasma TV screens and communal reading table. Titles range from nice - Seaside Interiors - to naughty - Motel Fetish. We had particular fun flipping through the pages of a little book called Vintage Food Graphics, which memorializes such products as Tater Pokes, Rots O' Ruck, Candee and Corn Flakes with Instant Bananas."
WHERE, Los Angeles
United States
"Avant-garde German publishing house TASCHEN has teamed up with architect Philippe Starck for its just opened U.S. flagship in Beverly Hills. The bookstore, which sells limited editions priced in the thousands, is suitably glitzy, with gold leather accents, purple mirror and glossy walnut wood cases. Artist Albert Oehlen also created 20 computer-generated collages for the walls and ceiling."
Women's Wear Daily, New York
United States
"The narrow high-ceiling space is sexy, with its glitzy-boudoir-meets-Parisian-bookstall aesthetic. Book covers look out from dark walnut walls. On the glossy shelves, the wares mingle high and low culture with ease: cheeky pin-up girls stand beside Gaudi's curvy cathedral. The dichotomy between pulp and precious permeates the whole of TASCHEN's enterprise. Given both Taschen's publishing history and Starck's witty designs, the paradox is apt; the project revels in the playful juxtaposition of decadence and democracy."
Azure, Toronto

"Starck's Californian Dream! His sexy and intelligent world is now in Los Angeles. TASCHEN, world's leading art publisher opens its store in Los Angeles. Shining walnut floor, bronze book shelf and Arbert Oehlen's collages on the walls and the ceilings look gorgeous and sophisticated."
Casa Brutus, Tokyo
Japan
"The bullshit nature of most English shops is underlined by the new TASCHEN store in Beverly Hills... A resounding 'must try harder' to our Harry Potter-peddling institutions."
