Collection: Richard Sapper
Sapper (1932 – 2015) began his design career in the styling department of Mercedes Benz in Stuttgart, before transferring to Milan in 1958 to work with the architect Gio Ponti and in the design division of “La Rinascente”. In the early 1960s, Sapper began to collaborate with the Italian architect Marco Zanuso. Renowned for their aesthetic of sculptural minimalism, they developed a series of televisions and radios for Brionvega, the lightweight K1340 stacking children's chair for Kartell and the compact folding Grillo telephone for Siemens/Italtel.
