“Like Branzi , Deganello and Sottsass, Lapo Binazzi is one of the Italian designers who developed the“ disegno radicale ” in groups like“ Archizoom ”,“ Superstudio ”,“ UFO ”and“ 999 ” at the end of the sixties . An open form that defended itself against custom, straightforwardness, obsession with order, compliance with the law and against the market, against its own marketing. "
