      I didn’t know that’s what that style is called, thanks! I’m a fan.

        I’ve always referred to it as Memphis Design, as it comes from a design group called Memphis Milano.

          TIL, thanks!

          From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memphis_Group#Impact

          Jasper Morrison, the renowned British furniture designer, recalled the “cold sweat” and “shock and panic” he felt upon his first encounter with Memphis products

          In my head he’s Anthony Stewart Head and his reaction is delightful.

      I looked up fiorucci and found a fashion brand. Are they where that 90s graphic style came from or have I misunderstood?
