Michele De Lucchi was born in Ferrera in 1951 and is well known for his experimental designs. As a design rebel opposed to the over abundance of superficial products he joined the experimental design group Studio Alchimia and later the Memphis design group, for which he designed Post-modern furniture, accessories and laminates.
De Lucchi rejected the notion of function as the supreme design principle, however, he later turned to increasingly industrial products, such as the best selling
Tolomeo Desk Lamp, for
Artemide.
