Urban Architecture Inc.
the original

Since 1981, a singular source for MEMPHIS and collectible design.

Urban Architecture is Keith Johnson’s long-running world of Memphis, postmodern, and historically resonant design. As the first North American dealer of Memphis, he has spent decades placing rare works with collectors, private clients, and those who understand that great design is never merely decorative.
