\"Meet<\/p>\n

Since first setting up his studio in the Frankfurt suburb of Offenbach am Main back in 2006, Sebastian Herkner has unremittingly focused on creating designs that fuse tradition with creativity, new technology with craftsmanship. He had adopted this style way before the design world took it under its wing in a supremely fashionable wave. His unconditional love for traditional craftsmanship was what guided his first landmark design, the \u201cBell\u201d table, whose steel and brass platter nestles on a hand-blown glass base produced in a centuries-old Bavarian glass factory<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s absolutely vital we revive all these traditional forms of craftsmanship before they get lost forever, as they\u2019re an integral part of our cultural heritage.\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"Meet<\/p>\n

His appetite for a challenge and relentless desire to explore uncharted territory has not only led him to design glasses, bicycles and perfume bottles or make forays into the world of interior design, but also to embark on an internship with Stella McCartney during the course of his studies. \u201cI was interested in the manufacturing processes used in fashion, and understanding how colours are put together\u201d he explains. The flair for combining colours he honed whilst there now underpins his signature style. \u201cColour is often the very last thing designers think about. For me, it\u2019s always the starting point for the whole design process\u201d. He does admit, nonetheless, that \u201cit can take years to find that perfect colour combination\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
