You will find below some information.
Complementary insights on the Memphis style: 'Memphis is the major cultural phenomenon of the 80s that revolutionized the creative and commercial approaches of design. Born from an idea by Ettore Sottsass and a group of young Milanese designers and architects, later joined by internationally renowned designers, Memphis disrupted all established housing parameters. With Ettore Sottsass as the group's emblematic figure, design gained a new conception and expression through new forms, materials, and motifs, pushing the creative boundaries of the industry. Memphis has become a symbol of New Design. Its influence remains evident across many sectors of production and beyond.'
Dimensions: 29 x 12 x 12 cm.
