Memphis Design Group

Memphis is my favourite design group these days. I did my Masters thesis about them with a special focus on leader Ettore Sottsass and find their approach clever and relevant.
Memphis only lasted 1981-1987 but their products can still be bought - and viewed on www.memphis-milano.com


Members included Mattheo Thun, Nathalie Du Pasquier, Ettore Sottsass and Marco Zanini.
