Notes from the archive: The comprehensive story of Memphis, as told by Barbara Radice their cultural art director, from the beginning with Studio Alchymia to detailed results of their first three years to their highest aspirations in architecture. Hundreds of color and black photos chronicle the designs from drawings and sketches to finished objects and furniture. Memphis' use of primary and contrasting color in graphic designs and patterns for plastic laminates and textiles, are explored along with their effect on the global fashion and interiors worlds.
