VICTORIA & ALBERT 04

Today’s V&A pic of the day

Designed by the incredible Ettore Sottsass who unfortunatley passed away at the end of 2007. A pivotal designer Sottsass’s work concentrated on architecture, furniture, jewellery, glass and ceramics. Sottsass’s architecture set new standards but he will probably be remembered for Valentine, the bright orange typewriter he designed for Olivetti in 1969.
