Just the other day, while browsing Instagram, I came across a set of photos from a project by Gulmen Interiors. The design elements within the space - both furnishings and built-ins were giving me a hint of Memphis Style vibes.


Naturally, I commented to ask if my read on the situation was accurate.


They very kindly responded to my inquiry and as it turns out I was wrong. They clarified - Memphis Style elements did not inspire the features of the Celaliye House project. That said, I highly recommend you give the Gulman Instagram page a view. Their work is fresh, interesting, unique and inspiring. Enjoy.


Now, for no reason at all I present some illustrations that do, in fact, give me Memphis style vibes.

never not thinking about how elements of Memphis Style creep into contemporary design elements - fashion, graphic design, interior decoration, art, interior & exterior design

full of whimsy?

vermicelli or paramecium, I don't know, and that's why it's fun.

^ looks refined - maybe it's the gradient?

what's being said here? so arbitrary.

more like modern confetti here. pink. teal. Miami Vice. 80s Nostalgia Here We Come

I'm so glad I got that out of my system.


And finally, some Memphis Style references for further reading and internet exploring. Because, upon further investigation, I think you will agree how it was easy to see the similarities in the Gulman project with Memphis Style examples.
