An innovative, sustainable and inclusive project with a supra-regional impact.
In our entrepreneurial activities, we deal specifically with the question of how we can strengthen ecological sustainability and social responsibility while maintaining our economic performance.
Sustainable, inclusive, smart
We want to promote rethinking and are looking for new solutions. Tackling the second cycle issue in particular is of crucial importance with regard to the ecological and economic challenges facing the furniture industry. More than 10 million tons of furniture are disposed of in the EU member states every year, of which around 2.5 million are disposed of in Germany. Reuse and upcycling must be promoted in order to reduce the ecological footprint and contribute to the circular economy.
What do we offer you?
A piece of furniture in the second cycle
Vitra Ad Hoc - a timeless table
The Ad Hoc table from 1996 is more than just a piece of furniture – it is a design classic that still impresses today. Its striking frame forms the basis for a wide range of adaptations: Whether new table top materials, different sizes or modern usage concepts – the clear construction allows for contemporary further development.
An example of how high-quality designs endure over decades and can be reinterpreted time and time again.
