Born in Innsbruck in 1917, Sottsass is known the world over as one of the initiators of the revolution in architecture and design which led away from the rigid functionalism of the years prior to and following the Second World War. A great and influential Maestro of Italian design, the energy of his language and the vitality of his colour and line contrast sharply with any intellectualism and rigidity.
"I think it is very hard to design a 'beautiful table': it does not depend simply on the tools and materials one uses, it depends on a subtle, fragile and uncertain sagacity which, sometimes, somebody—who knows how and who knows why—manages to channel into the design: a total perception of our cosmic adventure, as fleeting, ineffable and incomprehensible as it may be."
