VOLGA

The series of objects in white porcelain created by Matteo Thun for Memphis enters the designer’s family tradition of pottery craftsmanship, while at the same time updating that tradition with a sort of “humorous anti-functionalism.” Volga (1983) plays with a diagonal slope that generates an apparently precarious balance, compensated by the triangular upper part.
