Who are YOO?
YOO is a collaboration of ideas.
Ten years ago, Philippe Starck, the world’s most renowned designer, and John Hitchcox, the international property entrepreneur, came together with a ground-breaking concept. They set out to create a world-class design and development business that could focus the singular visions of the world’s leading designers. Today YOO does just that, drawing on the talents of Kelly Hoppen, Jade Jagger, Marcel Wanders and Philippe Starck amongst others. Now we create exquisitely designed homes right around the world, from New York to Buenos Aires, Marrakech to Mumbai. Read more about YOO at www.yoo.com
