Our core interest belongs to the world of objects. Things to
touch, that we are surrounded with and which we meet every
day. Inspired by our environment we develop ideas, that deal
with familiar images in search of gaps, leaps and missing
links. Apparently fixed structures are dissected, put upside
down, reshaped and assembled differently. This analytical
process repeats itself until the different factors form a
critical mass and a defined composition takes shape. Aiming
at the development of simple and dynamic products. Products
that can be naturally integrated in their environment and
that take into consideration a restricted economic and
spatial context.
