Designers for the Immediate Human Environment

Interior designers are specialists for creating people's immediate environment. Their work reaches far into the field architecture on the one hand and of industrial design on the other. While delimitations to these neighboring disciplines can never be entirely exact, the difference can still be characterized in the following way: Whereas architects are generalists of the particular, of a building and all its limiting conditions, interior designers are first and foremost designers and thus specialists of the general.

Design for Living and Communicating, for People and Markets

We consider the sometimes conflicting dualities of architecture and design, culture and economy, tradition and vision as an opportunity and indispensable element of interior design. We are convinced that interior design needs to be perceived as an independent discipline rather than an appendix to other fields so as not to be lost in these dualities. The creative work of interior designers is oriented towards human beings, their perceptions, their behaviors and their everyday and communication needs.
