Architecture<\/strong><\/p>\n

ONE H, SEOUL<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Philipp Mainzer Office for Architecture and Design won the fa\u00e7ade design competition for a multi-storey building in Seoul, South Korea. Situated near the bank of the river Hangang, metal-framed windows pierce the textured limestone fa\u00e7ade, giving the building a particularly modern and unique look.

Furniture<\/strong><\/p>\n

E15 ACCESSORIES<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

In a desire to combine contemporary design with oriental traditions the new e15 Living products emerged with the design of the side tables CM05 HABIBI and CT08 VIER. Complimented by the side tables the low platforms and cushions of SF03 SHIRAZ are used to create the perfect settings for social and relaxing environments.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Most Iconic Projects<\/strong><\/p>\n

There two the most famous projects of Philipp Mainzer: AESOP shop design and ST\u00c4HLEM\u00dcHLE \u2013 transformation of old German mill.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Aesop store recently opened in Frankfurt had turned to designer and architect Philipp Mainzer to develop their project. Taking inspiration from the city\u2019s modernist and cultural roots, the color palette was developed to evoke the forest green of the German landscape whilst the floor is created using matte grey ceramic tiles that reference the salt-glazed \u2018Bembel\u2019 stoneware typical of the local region. Elsewhere the simple beauty of raw materials is celebrated; Mainzer\u2019s office say the aim was to create an environment where \u2018The architecture focuses on the product rather than competing with it. Back-lit shelves in forest green float along the pale green-grey walls, generating a natural and complementing environment that supports the central element of the store, which is a monolithic solid walnut structure integrating a multi-purpose sink in raw brass\u2019.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Talking about the old mill project in Eigeltingen, Southern Germany, it was transformed into a working distillery complete with tasting areas and a showroom for award-winning spirits producer St\u00e4hlem\u00fchle. Behind the rustic doors of the old St\u00e4hlem\u00fchle mill now lie sleek, dramatically lit minimal rooms with exposed concrete walls and simple wood furnishings. Mainzer describes his creative intent as seeking to put \u201cspecified traditional materials in a modern context\u201d \u2013 he incorporated industrial materials that contrast with the polished finish of the large, elegant copper distillation machine. The custom-made wooden furniture pieces throughout the space were crafted by design firm e15.The incredible transformation of the space, accompanied by Keller\u2019s purist, organic approach to the production of alcohol is perhaps marred only by some of the choices in building materials \u2014 the minimal industrial floors are made from asphalt.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

Cooperations<\/strong><\/p>\n
