Archizoom Associati, Italy (active from 1966 to 1974)

Archizoom Associati was an Italian design agency founded in 1966 in Florence, Italy by four architects: Andrea Branzi, Gilberto Corretti, Paolo Deganello, Massimo Morozzi, joined in 1968 by two designers, Dario Bartolini and Lucia Bartolini. The agency was active from 1966 to 1974. The creations are tinged with kitsch to mock the pretensions of “Good Design”.
