Three lines. One studio.
Each line keeps one gesture and carries it from the ceiling to the shelf to the desk.

Blocks on one pole.

See the line
From a line to an object you live with.
-
The line
Every piece begins as one line on paper. If the line has nothing to say, it stays there.
-
The form
The line becomes a form. We turn it in 3D and change it until the gesture holds from every side.
-
The object
Made to order in our studio in Markdorf, checked, numbered and sent to your room.
Live with it.
