Enjoy the unexpectedness of life!
CONCEPT
strongly believes in your potentials and we see it as our challenge to feed that by creating mind and senses triggering spaces, textiles and products.
Central to the design process is the relationship between user and object/space.
Products we make are not seen as final and fixed, but are adaptable according to circumstance or the wishes of the user. This flexibility creates an active relationship between user and object.
Minimalism and simplicity characterise the work, which while inspired by traditional objects for daily use in different cultures, are transformed with contemporary styling.
The different features and character of each product necessitate a range of materials and techniques.
As these are developed, design and material use influence each other in both directions.
