Hasta La Ideas

Been a while since I had my socks knocked off, but I’m writing this barefoot as I’ve just stumbled across the website of Muller Mobelfabrikation.

Also written “Mueller Moebelfabrikation” to compensate for umlauts, the German company manufacturers desks, sideboards, trolleys, rolling bar refrigerators and more, all done up in an Art Deco/Streamlined style.

Their pieces are gorgeous, made from sheet steel and natural woods, topped off with a durable, scratch-proof lacquer. And I like their ethic:

The most important tool: our hands.

We produce all our furniture by hand using traditional procedures. This guarantees excellent workmanship and the typical unique character. After cutting, pressing and stamping the steel plate for each piece of furniture is welded by hand. For the varnish we use acrylic varnish from the car industry. In this way we achieve high shine surfaces, which are both hard wearing and easy care…. In this way you experience handicraft expertise and maximum diversity in every piece from our workshops.
