Lettera 36 - my valentine exhibition

The Lettera 36 typewriter designed by Ettore Sottsass is a late inclusion in the exhibition opening tomorrow - 'my valentine' at the Design Gallery at the Design Institute of Australia, Level 1, 175 Collins Street, Melbourne. February 14th -24th. 10am-4pm Weekdays.

This typewriter was stored in Shepparton so I was not sure I could include it but it arrived today so I am delighted to include it. This more serious work from Ettore Sottsass balances the 'pop' status and celebrity of the Valetine. Designed around the same time the Lettera 36 is an electric portable typewriter.


'my valentine exhibition' features the Lettera 36 typewriter designed by Ettore Sottsass 1970.
