Michele De Lucchi studied in Padua and later at the University of Florence, graduating in 1975. He designed furniture for Studio Alchimia and in the 80's for Memphis. He introduced geometric motifs on the plastic laminates used by Memphis. At the end of Memphis, he launched his own production 'Produzione Privata', free from all industrial constraint. De Lucchi gives a priority to the human aspects of creation and value to craftmanship's work.

About Ceramic Vases and Objects for Produzione Privata:
"Ceramic was the first material which I used to express my own ideas and feelings without having to respond to anybody but myself.
In the designing of the ceramic vases you can follow my process of transition from Memphis to my own identity which I wanted to express in Produzione Privata: I began with black and white designs, still influenced by Memphis, and moved to pure white vases using the natural colour of the material, which is more than a colour, giving expression of the specific magnificent material which can vary so much from clay to clay from backing to backing.
The white vases were born essential in colour, big volumes, expressing simplicity and harmony - requiring considerable artisan capacity and conviction for their realisation.
Another material, which I wanted to use to create a specific quality of light, was porcelain - at that time completely out of use for domestic product. The material is so difficult too work almost no artisan is ready to work it. But used around a light source this material creates a most fascinating, poetic effects, being a warm opaque diffuser it gives its surrounding a somewhat mysterious unreal dimension."
