As an advocate of responsible entrepreneurship, it is also clear that the brand only creates high-quality and timeless furniture. You won't find trends like fast furniture or monthly changing collections at One House. The founding couple attach great importance to local material procurement, short supply chains and a small ecological footprint. The collection includes sofas, side tables and accessories. POET POET is committed to high fidelity in the literal sense: high fidelity of sound. Because what could sound better than a trained voice, a Steinway grand piano developed over generations or an original Stradivarius? The POET development team in Graz achieves this authentic sound using the highest quality components. But even more important is the design: POET systems are always fully active, which means that the amplifier modules are located in the loudspeaker itself. The POET sound world in the stilwerk Hamburg is also a small experiment: the consultations take place via video conference from the headquarters in Graz. Customers are given maximum independence in their initial experience with the POET sound systems; they can move freely and learn how easy the POET sound systems are to use with their smartphone. PRESENT STORIES For little design enthusiasts: The play furniture from Present Stories is a real all-rounder and invites you to create imaginative designs. They integrate beautifully into the living space and become long-lasting companions for young and old. Behind the Berlin-based label are Silvia and Antonia - siblings and designers with their own studio. The idea for the concept came from their own interests: In their search for timeless, plastic-free play furniture, they couldn't find what they were looking for, so they set up their own label. Highly recommended. RACK BUDDY With Rackbuddy products you can make optimal use of your space. The Danish brand's strategy? Maximizing storage space while minimizing material consumption. How it works? With a modular system that requires just a few components and offers endless combination options for the greatest possible individuality.

In The focus is on sustainable and aesthetically integrated overall concepts that meet the high requirements for energy efficiency, acoustics and design. SCHWITZBUDE Admittedly, a sweat booth doesn't fit in your pocket. Nearly. The outdoor sauna is so small – 2.16 x 2.16 meters – that you can put it wherever you want. Whether at the lake, in a forest clearing or simply in the garden. The design is reduced, the construction is simple: the plug-in connection at the corner makes the sweat booth extremely stable. Only Nordic spruce or Douglas fir wood from certified, sustainable cultivation is used. These two woods are particularly suitable because they absorb and release high humidity well. The outer skin of Douglas fir remains untreated and grays over time without artificial wood protection. SIMPLE PLANT Let it grow: With Simple Plant you can harvest fresh salads, herbs and vegetables every day at home. All year round and without a balcony. The smart gardens are available in different sizes and are produced in Hamburg. Only high-quality materials such as oak and stainless steel are used, but your vegetables get the biggest stage. Also suitable for anyone without a green thumb: the right app always tells you what needs to be done. TEBTON Timeless and functional: The formal language of the TEBTON® designs comes across as a certain matter-of-factness thanks to their reduced aesthetics. As if they had always been there. The possible uses are diverse: thanks to their clean look, the lights, tables, stools and shelves fit skilfully into a wide variety of furnishing styles and work as part of an ensemble as well as as stand-alone items. The best for last: Everything is made in Berlin - from powder coating to metal processing. Local. Sustainable. Innovative.

The company has been transforming green spaces into true oases of wellbeing for over two decades.

BoConcept launches the "Nawabari" collection with BIG - Bjarke Ingels Group. Now available at BoConcept in stilwerk Hamburg. Enthusiastic about the product: Bjarke Ingels and Jakob Lange, Head of Product at BIG, in conversation. © BoConcept A design collaboration between two greats of Danish design does not happen every day. But now it has happened: BoConcept is delighted to be collaborating with the world-renowned architectural firm BIG – Bjarke Ingels Group – and is presenting the exclusive “Nawabari” collection. "BoConcept is known for its elegant and timeless designs that are eye-catching in any room. With this collaboration, we are opening up to BIG's characteristic disruptive approach with playful, informal designs. We are proud to be able to work with Bjarke and his team on this collection." Paula Mc Guinness, Chief Marketing Officer The inspiration The design of the collection, which was created under the leadership of partner and Head of BIG Products Jakob Lange, is inspired by the traditional Japanese art form of rope tying to create tight bonds. "Nawa" means rope in Japanese, and the term "Nawabari" traditionally refers to the tensioning of ropes. "When we started this collection, we were looking for a new form of expression for furniture. We were interested in the shapes that emerge when a material is tied with rope. The result is these sculptural organic shapes that form the core of this furniture family." Jakob Lange Works of art for the design-oriented home The Nawabari collection is an invitation to anyone who loves elegant design to transform their home into a creative art gallery. The colorful Nawabari stools make unique statements that transform any room, whether bedroom or home office, into a vibrant and artistic place. The Nawabari collection consists of two sofa options, an armchair, two coffee tables and two large footstools. It can be assembled in a variety of fabrics and colours from BoConcept's wide range, making it very versatile. The available fabrics include the luxuriously soft Ravello fabric, which is available in six colours: sand, beige, grey, grey-green, dark blue and old pink. The simplicity and elegance of BoConcept combined with BIG's forward-thinking, functional aesthetic make each design in the Nawabari collection an unparalleled design experience with the highest level of comfort and artistic design. The Nawabari collection is now available at BoConcept in stilwerk Hamburg. For more information about the launch, visit boconcept.com .

With the Strandhotel Blankenese, stilwerk is opening its second hotel in Hamburg in May: Another Art Nouveau jewel, again on the water, only this time not on the Alster, but on the Elbe. The hotel is set against the picturesque backdrop of the Blankenese staircase district and exudes Mediterranean flair. We talk to Karlotta Bott, Head of Curation & Design, and Alexander Garbe, partner at stilwerk, about what makes this place so special, what the interior concept of the hotel looks like and what color worlds await us. stilwerk: What is special about this place? Alexander Garbe: A lot of things are happening at the same time in this place: you are in the city and somehow also out of it. The beach (incidentally one of the last natural beaches in Hamburg) is just around the corner and the harbor is opposite. Container giants pass by and the picturesque staircase district with its villas is behind you. This simultaneity is what makes it special. It creates a certain magic that makes this place so special...at least for me. Karlotta Bott: Absolutely – that's how I always feel when I come here. And the light – the light in the rooms is simply fantastic. When the sun shines, it creates such a warm atmosphere that I feel like I'm transported to the south. Karlotta Bott, Head of Curation & Design, and Alexander Garbe, partner of stilwerk. stilwerk: You have completely redesigned the hotel. How does such a creative process start? As a team, on site? Let's take a quick look behind the scenes... KB: Definitely as a team: After an initial, joint visit on site, during which we collect initial ideas, spontaneous associations and perhaps find three or four keywords that serve as a framework, an intensive research phase follows: Here I get visual inspiration, find moods that correspond to our vision of the place. These moods are usually not concrete at all, but rather are more about a mood, a feeling, the atmosphere, even in a certain way an attitude that we want to convey with the space. The essence of the place, so to speak... AG: Keywords like timeless, modern with a certain twist are basically already set - that is the DNA of stilwerk and all our destinations, so to speak. But it is a real process. With lots of curves, roundabouts and turns... The creative process starts with mood boards and collages © Luís Bompastor Then tell us – what is the design concept of the beach hotel? AG: With the beach hotel, we want to create a place that inspires, surprises and where a vacation in the city becomes possible. Vacation in the sense of relaxing, taking a break, taking a deep breath. Here you can really enjoy good design - for a business trip or a city trip. KB: Exactly, we want to create an oasis here. An oasis of well-being that inspires you. A place that invites exchange. We were inspired by the surroundings when designing: water, sand and lush green define our color scheme. The materials are all genuine and very natural. Unpainted, stained wood, marble surfaces, brass tones. Paired with small breaks, twists that make the overall picture exciting. These breaks start with the color scheme, continue with attractive, special shapes in the furniture and find the finishing touch in the accessories. The design of the studios © stilwerk © Luis Bompastor Speaking of color: As in the stilwerk Hotel Heimhude, color also plays a major role in the Strandhotel – how did this penchant come about and what are your Blankenese tones? KB: In fact, in both hotels the colors came first and then the rest came. So yes, main role describes it pretty well (laughs). For Blankenese we always say: sky, sun, sea and some greens - colors that are inspired by nature and create a really cozy atmosphere overall. Colors play an important role anyway, of course. But we wanted to go a little further and be bold: color as a statement, not garishly colorful, but clear in expression. AG: Karlotta had to sometimes slow me down so that it wasn't too colorful (laughs). A good example is our club room: it's pink, but far from the Barbie look and cutesy feel. Rather, it has a timeless vibe that is really special in combination with the furniture. From sans yellow to dusty blue: the colour palette is intense and fits in with nature © Luís Bompastor Perfect transition: What about the furniture - have you discovered new brands for the Kosmos? Are there certain key pieces that make up the Blankenese vibe? KB: We were particularly inspired in Milan at the Salone del Mobile and at the 3 Days of Design in Copenhagen. We were actually able to find some new brands there: Atelier Areti, for example, a small studio from Italy that we discovered in the off-program Alcova and that is now furnishing our public areas. With really great lights that are very elegant and formally really special. Or Rye from Denmark, who make their timeless wooden beds in Denmark and only make them to order. I could go on forever, but to name a few more names: Northern, Massproductions and Dusty Deco are also real highlight brands that are new to the cosmos. AG: A real key piece for me is the Verpan sofa in the Club Room. Lots of wood, metals and surprising accessories characterize the design of the hotel © Luís Bompastor Do you already have a favorite spot in the hotel? So where can we find you next? KB: I love the yellow studios. I'm looking forward to sleeping there and drinking my morning tea in the lounge chair with a truly unique view of the Elbe. When the sun shines, a very special magic develops in the room. My tip: Studio No. 4 ;) AG: My absolute favorite is the Club Room. For me, it's a special space that, with its mix of bar, living room and community space, could become a hotspot in Blankenese. That's what we hope, anyway. The clubroom with the Verpan sofa as an absolute key piece © stilwerk There is already another hotel in the city, the stilwerk Hotel Heimhude. It is also an Art Nouveau villa, also close to the water. What are the most striking differences for you? AG: Heimhude is our grande dame in sneakers: The surroundings are very urban, despite being close to the Alster. Our guests come there for a short city or business trip: design & culture, design & work, so to speak. Blankenese is completely different: the beach hotel is a beach getaway in the city. Just because of the surroundings: beach, water. There you are immediately surrounded by a calm that takes you out and relaxes you. Even people from Hamburg can go on holiday here. The idea behind stilwerk hotels is also to combine retail and the hotel industry – meaning: guests can buy everything they see in terms of design? AG: Something like that. In fact, that was our basic idea when we entered the hospitality industry: we want to make design a real experience in our hotels. In Blankenese, we're going one step further than in Heimhude: our hosts will also be available for initial advice and will then be happy to put you in touch with our retailers or the brand directly. The curated studios therefore offer not only accommodation, but also an opportunity to immerse yourself in a creative world and be truly inspired. Finally, back to Blankenese: Do you have three words that define the Strandhotel Blankenese for you? AG: mysterious lady in white…that’s four now, but it counts, right? (laughs) KB: Three are tough: I think I need a few more: cool ornaments with timeless, modern designs meet a good portion of edge. Add to that the magic of the place... Great. Thank you for the exciting insights and your time.
