An icon of Postmodern design.
Designed by Ettore Sottsass for Memphis Milano in 1981 , the Casablanca cabinet is one of the defining pieces of the Memphis movement, bold, architectural and deliberately unconventional.
Its towering, almost totemic form combines storage with sculpture, using vivid colour, graphic laminate and exaggerated angular shelving to challenge traditional ideas of what furniture should look like.
The distinctive patterned surfaces are integral to the design language Sottsass developed for Memphis, transforming an everyday cabinet into something closer to functional art.
Instantly recognisable and highly collectible, the Casablanca remains one of the strongest examples of early 1980s Italian Radical and Postmodern design.
