The designer
The rebel of design. Founder of the Memphis Group in the 80s in Milan, Sottsass broke the rules of functionalist "good taste." His importance lies in bringing emotion, color, and narrative back to furniture. He used plastic laminates, totemic shapes, and vibrant colors to question consumerism and Bauhaus rigidity. Knowing Sottsass is understanding Postmodern design; his pieces, like the Carlton bookcase, are functional sculptures. He is vital for understanding the aesthetic rupture of the 20th century, adding immense artistic and collectible value.

The brand
Alessi is known as the "Dream Factory" of Italian design. Founded in 1921, it transformed the kitchenware and home accessories sector by inviting architects to work with metal. Under Alberto Alessi's vision, pieces like the Juicy Salif juicer by Philippe Starck or the kettle by Michael Graves ceased to be mere utensils and became icons of postmodernism. Alessi represents the perfect fusion of industrial production and art. Buying an original Alessi means bringing a museum piece to your table, crafted in high-quality stainless steel, combining irony, functionality, and timeless aesthetics.
