Christofer Born
(Germany)

After his
apprenticeship to a silversmith, Christofer Born has
studied product design in Vienna as well as in
Nuremberg. In 1996 he was nominated as a "Meisterschüler".
After his studies he worked for Rational as a Product
Development Engineer and also for Niessing in the area
of product design and product management.
This work experience was followed by a year-long trip to
Australia, where he lectured at the TAFE of Perth
and Sydney. He also used this trip to extensively pursue
rock climbing.
In 2005 Christofer Born founded born product ideas.

His design is always committed to and in line with the
initial product idea. Many of his works and concepts are
based on technical inventions. This implies that
complete new products are developed and not “just”
visual modifications. Christofer Born always keeps in
mind the thrill and sense of delight when using these
products.
The luminaire Lichtsack he designed - not without a
sense of humour - has advanced already to a classic.
With WATERCLIMBING, Christofer Born managed to
"domesticate" the latest trend among extreme rock
climbers (deep-water-soloing, climbing sea-cliffs) and
thus made a fascinating sports experience possible to
everyone.
Numerous of his products have received prestigious
design awards.

lichtsack series from the Christofer Born.
The Idea behind this design is to create a bridge

Design has to be seen from different prospective.
Nachacht
Design(Germany)
Nachacht is made
up of 3 designers from Berlin, Mark Bergold,Julian
Jaede and Martin Schmid. The label was founded by
Mark and Julian in 2007 who decided to meet after
after work(nachacht literally translates to “after
eight“) to develope ideas for furniture design.
All
the projects from nachacht have an intuitive element
of adjustability for personal preference that allows
the user to change the colour and material break-up
of the object to suit their taste. All the designs
are essentially based around two core material types
– wood and coloured metal, which gives the design a
strong graphic element.
