Michael Graves - Alessi Kettle

It was very sad to learn of the recent passing of Michael Graves.

The Alessi 9093 kettle he designed has been a design icon since it was introduced in 1985 while I was still in design school.

I often used it in lectures to inspire creativity in industrial design students.
