Enzo Mari was an Italian designer who shaped the way we think about furniture construction.
‘He belongs to the small and select group of Italian architects and designers, or rather Italian architect-designers, who contributed to the reconstruction of post-war Italy, but also to making Italian design a benchmark, a standard, a brand, a design, a myth. But you were also part of those who questioned, provoked and lately witnessed the transformation and decline of an idea of design: yours. (excerpt from Frederico Duarte in 'Expectations and experiences‘)
No previous knowledge is required.
