Abstract

Ettore Sottsass Jr. (Innsbruck 1917-Milan 2007) was an architect, artist, designer, photographer, and writer, who always had a nomadic approach to events. This led him to travel incessantly around the world ever since his university years and till the end of his life. Starting from his archive, this article aims at investigating the design methods and processes around his journeys by considering both his business trips and the ones fostered by his curiosity. Travelling represented a tool for the search of his own identity, a parallel path in his long and seminal career, always intertwined with his design methodology.
