Ettore Sottsass (1917–2007) was an Italian architect and designer, best known for founding the Memphis Group in the 1980s, which had a profound impact on postmodern design. Sottsass had a long and diverse career, and his work spanned various disciplines, including architecture, industrial design, and ceramics. In the early 1980s, Sottsass founded the Memphis Group, a design collective that brought together young designers and artists. The group's designs were characterized by bold colors, geometric shapes, and a rejection of the minimalism of the preceding decades..
