Utopia: Lost and Found<BR>
A single-owner sale featuring designs from one of the most radical periods in design history. 1960s and 70s Europe witnessed extreme experimentation with materials and forms that drastically changed the direction of design. When introduced, many of these works critiqued the traditions and applications of design, foreshadowing contemporary trends and establishing the designers as mavericks of their time.<BR><BR>

Utopia: Lost and Found includes designs that challenge, delight and surprise the eye. Fresh to the American market, the private collection is presented in a custom-designed catalog inspired by the works themselves.<BR>
