Matteo Thun was a prominent Memphis Group member. A lot of his creations for Memphis are among the most iconic and recognizable from the movement. For example his tea pots for Memphis are some kind of perfect creatures coming from other worlds, some kind of alien technology using ancient knowledge. Each tea pot encompasses and transcends all design history, they're timeless like the metal forts from the "Stillight" series.
