The letter to challenge for a duel
Design is a high-stakes game, the outcome matters. Ideas simply tend to get better when challenged. Meaningful design requires the same amount of obsession for intelligence as it does for elegance. Our team has a background in graphic design, illustration, psychology and philosophy and challenges itself constantly to explore any boundaries.
That energy is tangible in the lively dynamic of the studio. We believe in quality and in projects that have character as well as a message. Every day we collaborate with a broad network of talented young professionals from a range of creative disciplines to realize even the most ridiculous of ideas.

Chisels a chestnutOur vision: Wood
Wood is the firm foundation, the obligation of vivid communication, the craftsmanship. Wood is stable and rooted, organic and constructive. Wood has been the paragon of good design and the trusty building material of the craftsman for centuries already.
Our passion: Gold
Gold is the courage to exceed, the legitimation of expression, the beauty of things. Gold is an end in itself - a reason to create. Gold has been the taste of the gods and the ethereal molding material of the artist for centuries already.

How we work
We like to talk, a lot. Through a dialogue we get to know our customers fully. We invest in a solid relationship with every collaboration that we engage in, so that we can address the story, the cultural context and acquire the answer to any question. We take our customers through a clear process in which we work with graphical precision towards a complete design in which wood and gold have been joined together.
