Bold, fantastic, colourful, and compelling, Memphis furniture, clothes, and accessories are outrageously ornamental. “Il Nuovo Design” — what came to be known as Memphis — took the design world by storm in 1981 and is now featured in mainstream stores at affordable prices. A design philosophy that redefines the concept of furniture, Memphis: Objects, Furniture, and Patterns shows how to place and integrate these innovative pieces into virtually any existing design scheme.
