Elle Decoration March 2023

The March 2023 edition of Elle Decoration (UK) is totally a keeper. There’s so much design goodyness in this issue and I wanted to highlight two features that really caught my eye.

This editorial called “That new Memphis Magic” was a standout. The introduction paragraph reads “The 1980’s design movement has enjoyed a comeback, with orignals highly south-after- but, for those in the know, now’s the tie to invest in contemporary pieces that take inspiration from the ethos while adding a fresh persepctive.

I totally agree. For the past, almost… 10? years, there’s been a steady resurgence of appreciation for the 80’s “Memphis-milano” movement. I am clearly a fan, but what really excites me is that it’s evolving and this editorial shows some great examples of what that could look like.

The photography is by Ben Anders and the wonderful styling by Hannah Bort.

Here’s some of my fav shots:
