Marvellous Memphis

And I don't mean the Italien design and architecture group that rocked the 1980ies founded by Ettore Sottsass. No, I refer to the brand new unique and handmade tableware called Memphis, designed by Danish ceramic designduo Stilleben by Ditte Reckweg and Jelena Schou Nordentoft – and yet there are some references to the old Memphis style. Because this is no ordinary tableware, since the objects are not the same colour, material, structure or shape. Every single object are different from each other but in a strange way, they are still joined in perfect harmony fitting beautifully together. I happily picked up my pink sugar loaf today, and I have a strange feeling, that soon it will be accompanied by a couple of small brown, rustic cups.
