In Italian design, the Radical period took place in the late 1960s, with a shift in style among the avant-garde.
Probably the most notable result of this avant-garde period is the installation called "Superarchitettura", made in Pistoia in 1966.
Other professionals of that period were: David Palterer, Tomo Ara, Battista Luraschi, Bepi Maggiori, Alberto Benelli, Pino Calzana, etc.
[3] In addition, a movement called "Postmodernism" or "Neomodernism" was led by Alessandro Mendini, director of reviews like "Casabella", "Modo" and "Domus" from 1980 to 1985.
Mendini's postmodernism inspired exhibitions like "L'interno oltre la forma dell'utile" (Interior space beyond the form of usefulness) held at the Triennale di Milano in 1980.
