Thanks! 😀 It's indeed a beautiful design!

While not the most memorable Olivetti's design it still oozes Italian good taste if compared with contemporary American things.

Except the Thinkads that were co-designed by Richard Sapper and Marco Zanuso. The latter famous for designing things like the Brionvega TS502

I absolutely love Italian design, hence I have this MV Agusta F4-RR 312 1078, by Massimo Tamburini standing in my lounge!
