    Twice each week I’ll examine a different object that has, in some subtle or insidious way, found itself in my life. Sometimes this can be a commentary or observation and other times a starting point for a story or an experience. Objects captivate us, define us, shape our home and work environments. In giving each a story, I want to bring these small things to life.

    すべてのオブジェクトは物語がある。すべてのオブジェクトは寿命があります。

    Memphis-style clips from Keefer Street market. Memphis was a Milan-based group of furniture and product designers. Reacting to the post-Bauhaus/International Style design of the 1970s the Memphis Group designed bright, colorful, playful pieces. Ettore Sottsass, called Memphis design the “New International Style”. Memphis greats include Michele de Lucchi, Marco Zanini, Aldo Cibic, Nathalie du Pasquier and of course Ettore Sottsass who had worked for Olivetti through the 1960s.
