Ettore Sottsass (14 September 1917 – 31 December 2007) was a 20th century Italian architect, noted for also designing furniture, jewelry, glass, lighting, home and office wares, as well as numerous buildings and interiors — often defined by bold colors.
He has worked for names such as Knoll, Alessi, Stilnovo, Olivetti and Memphis Group.

Ettore Sottsass was one of the most influential architects alongside names such as Le Corbusier, Mies van der Rohe, Charlotte Perriand, Jean Prouvé, Pierre Jeanneret, Wiel Arets, the Eames, Eero Saarinen, and Alvar Aalto.

His unconventional ideas were controversial but have now become widely recognized and appreciated.
The work continues to be influential throughout the world and can be seen in the Art Institute of Chicago, the Design Museum in London, The Museum of Modern Art in New York and many others.
