Our goal is to create spaces that speak for themselves—their harmony is immediately apparent. Materials play a decisive role in shaping atmosphere, durability, and function. For us, they are not merely decorative elements, but fundamental pillars of quality and longevity.

Our choice of materials follows a clear philosophy: they should be timeless, high-quality, and authentic. We pay close attention to origin and craftsmanship, select durable, long-lasting materials, and use them consistently and honestly: wood remains wood, stone remains stone, and concrete remains concrete.

Material collection
Door handle FSB 1271 - Design: Jürgen Engel

In our materials library, we continuously collect, evaluate, and compare new and proven materials—from classic finishes to innovative developments. Our materials coordinator oversees this process. She researches products, assesses their potential applications, and supports the team across projects in making selections.

Through regular internal presentations, the properties, origin, processing, and potential of the materials are concisely communicated and discussed together. This ensures that the materials are not merely archived but actively integrated into the design processes. The materials library is thus not a static archive but a living tool that consolidates knowledge, keeps it up to date, and translates it into concrete decisions.
