What makes us, us.
Strong on strategy, creative with concepts. Harness the power of value-added design.
Great design enhances everyday life in many positive and often invisible ways.
Creative Director Greg Gutbezahl / “It is crucial to me as a designer that the nature of the product - its 'personality' shine through. It does not suit the product to have an inappropriate style imposed upon it—which confuses the message and can create the wrong impression. I strive to carefully match the product with its design personality—in this way the product will 'sell itself'.
It is my aim that many minds should work together create an environment in which design innovation surrounds us, setting a new standard of living and inspiring the masses to appreciate the importance of great design.”
