About LOWKON object|design:
LOWKON
object|design is located in Hechingen, South-Germany, beneath quaint
Hohenzollern Castle. The area between River Neckar and the Swabian Alb
has ever been the home of innovative members of the middle classes solving
finicky problems, as one may conclude from the multitude of mechanical
engineering companies. On the other hand, there has been the heart of
the German clothing industry for a long time. Fashion and feeling for
good forms have shaped the citizens of Hechingen.
LOWKON is a design company taking up those roots and developing innovative design products. The first product ready for marketing is the SIGMARAIL® CD Rack System.
“Form follows function”, is the motto of Mike Büchert, owner of LOWKON; and accordingly, he backed a design adapting itself to the elegant and classic simplicity of Bauhaus style.
“The ‘Bauhaus’ wants to serve the up-to-date housing development, from simple kitchen appliances to the complete residential building”, thus Walter Gropius about its purpose in 1925. “Bauhaus wants to train a new hitherto unknown type of industrial workers and artisans mastering technology and form to the same degree.” (Grundsätze der Bauhausproduktion. In: Neue Arbeiten der Bauhauswerkstätten. Baubuch 1925.).
Perfect function and minimalist design are the outstanding qualities of SIGMARAIL®. Consequently, LOWKON object|design is entirely in the tradition of the Bauhaus classics. You’ll enjoy a LOWKON product for a life time.
LIFE LOOKS BETTER WITH LOWKON.
