Unlike most chair designers, architect Hartmut Lohmeyer did not begin his furniture designs with a freely conceived product shape, but instead with the constructive possibilities of the material, from which the form was ultimately derived. His avoidance of opulence and embellishments made his chairs and tables minimalist and disciplined, yet they still had a consciously sensual appeal. In addition to their distinctive design language, the craftsmanship origin set strict standards for well-executed construction details and technical refinements.
