• it's begining to look good again the Memphis stuff. In 5 years everyone that hates it will be claiming they always liked it. That wheel looks great too, not for my bike but maybe on a nice pastel pink frame with pastel green forks it could be an 80's electro slave bike.

    Top dollar though.

    Memphis Design parallels Marmite.

    You're right about the comeback, it's not going to be mainstream though, the lines and colour combinations are infiltrating furniture design and architecture while we speak by a generation of designers schooled in the 80's beginning to have influence in their field. It was a fun & childish vision of future design at the time, a visual rebellion to form & function. Design became sterilized in the early 00's, now you will notice the Memphis playfulness being injected back in by the aforementioned generation while keeping all the good bits of what we already have.

    Anyway, I have some stuff for sale
