Furniture Ceramic Design Lighting Interior Product Chairs Technology Textile Living

Since 2013 the state of Berlin represent its design scene in foreign markets under the brand „Berlin Design Selection“.

The focus of these representations abroad is to open up new markets for Berlin-based design companies and studios in terms of a broader networking with producers, distributors and trade companies. The intention is to create a platform that provides international visibility of Berlin’s design scene, support the businesses at the new markets and stimulate the creation of new products.
The Berlin Design Selection Tour is going to stop at some of the most renowned design fairs and festivals worldwide in order to present a selection of design objects, products and prototypes by Berlin-based designers and, thus, position as well as showcase Berlin design on an international level.

The Berlin Design Selection group exhibition at Brera Design Distrct presents a variety of unique editions and interiour products. Whether quoting old German design tradition, reflecting upon daily necessities, researching or reaching beyond the habitual – this year's resourceful objects reflect their antagonistic yet appealing city of origin.

EXHIBITORS
& COMPANIES

Axel Veit

Axel Veit‘s furniture collections play with familiar style elements reinterpreting them into state-of-the-art singular design pieces. This is what modernism is all about: To draw inspiration from the existing and to create with it something new and exciting. At the renowned German furniture brands Classicon and Garpa he was in charge of product development, marketing and sales as executive vice president before he started his self-employment about 10 years ago with the exclusive distribution of such high end American brands as William Haines Designs, Giati Designs, Dunbar and Sutherland. In former positions he was head of marketing communications with Hewlett-Packard and Porsche cars in Stuttgart. The idea of developing his own furniture collection has been ripening in him for quite some years. The crucial kick came with the meeting of the young designer Alexander Rehn at the SaloneSatellite in 2013, where Alexander exhibited for the first time.

hettler.tüllmann

With a strong interest in haptic qualities hettler.tüllmann frequently integrate the sensitivity of handmade and traditional crafts into their products. The crafts have their origin in their own country or are borrowed from other cultures and continents. The research of materials plays an equally major role in their design process. Each project starts with a choice of a signature, low environmental-impact material. Looking for elements that are recycled or made out of fast growing resources hettler.tüllmann apply and use them in unexpected and also unconventional ways.

Hillsideout

HILLSIDEOUT is a joint project by Nat Wilms and Andrea Zambelli, which offers furnishing solutions that embrace art and design since 2009. In their work the idea of “restoration” is consistently present and presented in harmony with the designers’ strong belief in the contemporary. Hillsideout love to see historical layers. They uncover them through transparent materials and time related mediums such as photography. By the combination of ancient handcraft and contemporary narration Wilms and Zambelli create new, unique pieces.

Hopf, Nordin

Animate and inanimate nature is the tangible expression of invisible forces; growth and decay, an endless form-finding process, which is at the root of many of Hopf, Nordin’s designs. Hopf, Nordin are particularly inspired by those borderline cases, where the designer becomes curator, delegating an object’s formation partially or fully autonomously to the input of boundary conditions.
