About Tribute to E. Sottsass
Revamping a Staircase: The Beginning of a Tribute
Our latest project started with a simple client request: design a new staircase to replace their existing, impractical spiral one. However, as we began working on this task, we stumbled upon the Wikipedia page for Memphis, the influential design movement. We learned that Memphis was officially founded in Ettore Sottsass’s home on the evening of December 11, 1980. This discovery sparked a desire to create something truly special.
Celebrating 40 Years of Memphis Design
Inspired by the 40th anniversary of Memphis’s birth, we decided to transform the space we were entrusted with into a vibrant celebration of this important milestone. We believed the best way to express our gratitude towards Sottsass was to pay tribute to him through a unique design where space and symbols seamlessly merge.
Introducing “Tribute to E. Sottsass”
With this vision in mind, we created “Tribute to E. Sottsass,” a project that honors the Maestro’s legacy and showcases the impact of the Memphis movement on contemporary architecture and interior design.
