German Furniture

Harmony in Design and Quality

It doesn’t really surprise that german furniture stands for quality. But what is more it stands also for an excellent idea and understanding of the term "design". In this context design is more than the visible shape of furniture.

"Made in Germany" furniture connects ergonomy, haptic, function, and environmental sensibility to a extended global concept of design. You can compare it to music, where harmony, melody, metrics, rhythm and timing combined build a song. It all depends on the combination of the best ingredients. Read here why exactly "these ingredients" could be the perfect german gift for you.

Number One in Europe

The German furniture industry is number 1 in Europe. Worldwide it is on third place. In 2004 the industry's turnover reached about 20.1 billion € which is equivalent to more than 30 % of the European furniture industry's turnover.

German Furniture Design

Today, while almost everybody is online, it is not realistic to insist on exclusively German furniture design. Regional or local design has almost disappeared and the differencess are becoming increasingly obliterated.

German designers are studying in Paris and draft designs for english companies; German companies produce prototypes by Italian designers. Maybe one rough orientation for german design is the more ascetic design, a bit "dryer" than Italian design, which indulges in colours and forms. German Furniture Design is characterised by its sometimes complex functionality.

Rolf Benz: Art of Living

One great german success story is Rolf Benz. His name stands for superb workmanship, timeless modern design and excellent functionality. Rolf Benz's concept is as simple as his name. It's called "the art of fine living". Every single furniture of Rolf Benz is designed with two things in background - its comfort – which is legendary and its competence to meet the extraordinary high demand of aesthetic design. The Rolf Benz modular range of furniture is renowned for its flexibility to transform living spaces. Mix the modules as you wish to create your own personal look. Rolf Benz has broken the limits of what is possible, to emerge with the incredible beautiful.

Vitra Design Furniture

Vitra design elements are found in numeruous successful organisations and companies. You will find it as well in the houses of many private individuals with a feeling for design. Internationally, they cooperate with the nowadays most renowned designers. For almost 60 years now the company in germany has been manufacturing the furniture created by Charles and Ray Eames - the famous US designers.

The Mission of Vitra is to create furnishing systems that inspire, stimulate and motivate, while also offering the body safety, comfort and support. In order to attain this goal, they work with famous designers and a specialized Vitra team. They experiment with innovative ideas and are steadily testing the new challenges of our world.
