Alexander Fahl

Mario Bellini is one of the most versatile and influential designers from Italy. Trained as an architect, he is mainly known for his work in furniture and industrial designs. One of Bellini's best-known projects for Olivetti was the Programma 101, the first electronic desktop computer from 1965 (not an American invention but an Italian!)

The latest company using design elements by Mario Bellini is Google, and an interesting article about this can be read online: 'Google and the Resurgence of Italian Design'

The Lettera 10 typewriter is not very striking, but the combination of curved surfaces, straight angles and a minimalist approach makes this machine a delight to look at. It is part of the MoMa permanent collection.

Visible signs of use, such as superficial scratches on the protective cover, but no defects (please view the photos).

The costs for delivery of the object, within the Netherlands, are to be paid by the buyer (not included in the price).
Delivery outside the Netherlands will need to be arranged and paid for by the buyer.
