Italian artist and designer Enzo Mari, built a practice around the idea that design should elevate the human experience rather than serve only the wealthy, or creation of wealth. He had a keen ability for a cutting and grumpy critique of the world. His Autoprogettazione series (below), was and is a masterpiece work and epitome of his ideals -- a set of strikingly wonderful designs with free instructions provided for building beautiful, sturdy furniture from readily available pre-cut lumber -- furniture for the people.
