hausen x hamburg a photographic ode The City as a Stage"Hausen x Hamburg" is a photographic project by designer Jörg Höltje, stylist Ilka Teige-Zuzak, and photographer Volker Lammers. These three recent residents have fallen in love with Hamburg and express their affection through this ode to the city.Hamburg easily captures one's heart, not because of its weather, but because of its people, who defy the typical Nordic coolness. Above all, it's the juxtaposition of places, ranging from the ugly to the beautiful, the classy to the gritty, that define the city's diverse character.In return for the city's charm and its welcoming inhabitants, we present a limited edition of our SHRINK shelf in the color "Salmon."

Same Same but different

A plump plagiarism of our LINK shelving system was awarded the 1st prize of the Plagiarius negative Prize this year.   Plagiarism is not a compliment but a serious problem. It is money-making at the expense of our intellectual property, creativity and the effort we have invested in product development. The plagiarism's design, concept and proportions are copied 1:1, but without our high-quality standards. The plagiarism is made of cheap mango wood, the brackets are thin and warped.  Plagiarism is just another representative of a new negative development. Similar to "Fast Fashion", one can talk about "Fast Furniture" here. Cheap products are thrown onto the market in large quantities in order to achieve quick sales with seasonal trends and fashions. The companies save the wages of the designers or a time-consuming...
