We truly love to announce, that we have been chosen by “Klassik Stiftung Weimar” to design a series of exhibitions in respect of Henry van de Velde. We are very exited about this prestigious project for three reasons: First: Henry van de Velde has been our design hero for ever. Second: We have a close relationship to his design work, having lived in one of his famous interiors designed in 1906. Third: We admire the Klassik Stiftung Weimar for the outstanding exhibitions, museums and cultural work that it has created for for so many years.

This exhibition will be a serious retrospective, showing van de Velde in the context of art, design and architecture in the year of his 150th birthday in 2013. Exhibition dates: March 2013, Neues Museum, Weimar – September 2013 Musées d’Art et d’Histoire, Brussels. More to come soon.

C/O concept, work in progress

Colour- and material scheme for “C/O”, a surgical practice. We have been developing the concept and now we are in the phase of detailed design and corporate design. Custom designed furniture will be part of the schedule.

New stool: “Q03”

We have been looking for a stool for different projects that are currently in the works. We liked the “IKEA Benjamin”, but – unfortunately – this project is no longer available. …Mayday – Mayday…

So we took the chance and designed our own product. “my_die” will be made of just 2 pieces: a laser cut,  folded iron sheet and a piece of plywood, just fitted together, no fixtures. Finish: powder-coating, colours on demand.

Do not copy _ product registration and  and patent application are on the way.
