The year 2020 started off wonderfully and was then stopped abruptly in March. Everything was paralyzed. Corona was there and the world stood still. Public institutions were closed and contact with the outside world should be avoided. With a toddler at home, this initially meant no work for us.
We spent a lot of time as a family in our summer house and worked mostly in the evenings when our son was sleeping or took turns. It was uncertain how everything would go on. However, we noticed that through this strange time, when they were at home a lot as a family, people suddenly developed a different relationship with their four walls. They quickly realized how important it is to have a protective and personal home that is focused on what it should be - a quiet and protective place for the whole family. This is not about high-end luxury or smart homes. This is about something very rudimentary, a need for security and reliability. The home should be a place where everyone can develop, but also retreat. A place that appreciates all residents equally and gives them the feeling of having “arrived” - without being “locked up”. And it does not matter whether the home is bought or rented. For our well-being and our psyche, it is incredibly important in which environment we move and with what and with how much we surround ourselves. It is still a mystery to us why - especially in Germany - an unbelievable amount of money is spent on a new car or even on the shell of the dwelling - but the interior usually remains loveless and lifeless and is filled with cheap furniture and artificial surfaces never allowed to age- who must never live.
Perhaps this extraordinary time had a positive side effect and still encourages many people to think. What do I surround myself with and what do I fill my sensory impressions with - what do I absorb?
In fact, we received a request from a Seattle family who asked themselves this very question at this strange time and asked for help to tailor their four walls to their family needs. In a normal apartment - not a luxurious house. It is a wonderful job for us and we are very happy to work on this project. We are currently working on the basic atmosphere, as well as the predominant materials and colors that will carry the concept. In the meantime, all of our projects continue to run normally and we are very excited about every single result.
At this point, thank you to all of our customers who trust us and who believe in our interior design approach, our corporate philosophy and our moral principles. We work for the people, the residents, with all their needs - not for the industry and the marketing of their latest technology.
