Design in the 3rd dimension

Product design involves many different areas. Ultimately, it is about the design of three-dimensional things. A product should fulfil the expected function, be touching through its aesthetics and integrate into the existing environment as a matter of course.

Luminaires

Developing luminaires from wood means in particular making good use of the properties of the material. Three levels of light are created by the material-specific design: Direct light that emerges from the top and bottom of the luminaire, light that is reflected by the wood and light that shines through the transparency of the thin material.

Tableware

Thomas Merkel developed vessels that only retain their function by means of a base. Without this, they lose their functionality of preserving the contents and become pure objects whose functionality is limited to aesthetics.
