This week on Dezeen, French designer Philippe Starck expressed his "unconditional support" for Ukraine after a £444 million yacht he designed for a Russian oligarch was seized by Italian authorities.
Starck declared his solidarity with the Ukrainian people following the seizure of Sailing Yacht A, which is owned by Russian oligarch Andrey Melnichenko, as part of sanctions imposed over Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
"Philippe Starck and his work on A yachts 18 years ago are not related to the dramatic events going on in Ukraine and he, of course, wants to express his unreserved solidarity with the Ukrainian people and his unconditional support to their cause," Starck's studio told Dezeen.
