“Gentle is the result of architect Matteo Thun vision for a new stylist, classic design”, explains Managing Director Andreas Dornbracht. “Unlike other Dornbracht series, what makes Gentle so special is precisely how classic its form is. It signifies a very deliberate decision to open up our portfolio of traditional design.”
