Claassen & Partner: Power of Light


Name: CLAASSEN & PARTNER

Profession: designers

Country of Origin: Austria/Germany

Motto: to every problem ther eis a solution

Style of work: . In their work they interlace elements from different contexts and combine them in a new way. Central here is the role of the design process: experimenting with new materials, the practical research into new constellations, the play with the language of shapes. In this way new combinations are manifested that on the one hand refer back to the design process while on the other hand they undercut, question or lead the alleged congruency of form and function ad absurdum. Form and thematic references are picked up, deconstructed and fed back into the cultural cylce in a new constellation. Materials that have already served their purpose are recycled by CLAASSEN & PARTNER and assigned towards a new mission. The requirement here remains at all times: consistent, straight forward design that is reduced to the essential idea.
