GERMAN DESIGN AWARD - NOMINEE 2018

GDA 2018 Nominee

ANOTHER BIG CHANCE!

We are happy and honored to announce our nomination for the German Design Award!

Being nominated for the Newcomer category is another incredible chance for us to get in touch with industry professionals.

Since we came back from Milan we focussed a lot on our portfolio to participate in this contest. We included our works like Soma, Lunar and Breton - as well as some really interesting upcoming projects. Soon the finalists will be announced - we are very excited!

Our portfolio will be judged by a professional jury. Five finalists are going to be selected from the nominees. The Finalists and the Best Newcomer Designer will be presented during the Ambiente Fair in Frankfurt in February 2018.

About the German Design Council:

The German Design Council, the expert for brand and design in Germany, bestows the German Design Award. Established in 1953, it supports the industry in all matters consistently aimed at generating an added brand value through design.

Red Dot Award for SOMA

SOMA Chair RedDot Design Award

And the Red Dot Award goes to... SOMA!

We are happy and honored to announce that our SOMA Chair received the Red Dot Design Award 2017! We have never expected to receive this award when we started to design this chair back in 2014 at our university.

It fills us with pride to see our former graduation project receiving this award. We applied for the Red Dot at the special "Young Professionals Application Day" that offered 50 emerging Designers the chance to participate at the Award for free. 

Thanks to the award SOMA will be shown in the Red Dot Museum in Essen, Germany soon.

From 3rd of July we invite you to see our SOMA Chair in person. It will be presented with the beautiful yellow Kvadrat fabric some might remember from Stockholm Greenhouse earlier this year.
