Sculptures by Swiss artist Urs-P Twellmann Urs-P. Twellmann

"My main focus lies on transforming. In this process - where destruction and creation become as one - materials are collected and analysed; they get bent, broken, split and cut to become new forms or are arranged in a different context. The individual process can be long or short, free flowing or troublesome, can be hard physical work and lead through phases of chaos, disorientation and uncertainty - but it has to be a new challenge every time, resulting in expanding experiences and journeys of discovery. While I am interested in all materials, it's wood in all its variations, conditions and forms I usually prefer to work with."Urs-P Twellmann

Florain Hauswirth II


Beautiful chair, solid and elegant with lovely dowel joints by designer Florain Hauswirth.
"Wood is a fascinating material: it is robust and can be shaped well at the same time.
Although there is already a lot of wooden furniture, the possibilities of construction and design are far from being exhausted. I want to use these possibilities to push traditional wood craftsmanship further." Florain Hauswirth
