OLIVER HOLY, CEO
ClassiCon
ClassiCon has, from its inception, aspired not only to off er pieces by
established fi gures such as Eileen Gray and Eckart Muthesius, but also to foster
contemporary design and to present selected examples in its program.
Naturally, the models chosen must display the kind of quality and advanced
form that earns them the designation classic. Th at’s why ClassiCon is
always open to new design ideas.
Th e ClassiCon brand stands for quality, individuality and a timeless aesthetic –
regardless of passing fashions. More important than the degree of fame achieved
by the designer is a demonstrated fascination with new formal concepts. Th is
focus helps ClassiCon to continually discover exciting young designers. In the
case of Konstantin Grcic, this has resulted in a longstanding collaboration,
which the Munich designer took advantage of right from the start by including
references to the iconic Eileen Gray in his Orcus secretary.

True quality stands the test of time.
Our modern classics are collector’s items − not only the masterpieces of yesterday,
but of tomorrow as well. We aim above all to produce individual pieces of great
originality and formal perfection – pieces with the potential to become classics
in their own right one day. Displaying the kind of value that lasts, these pieces
are destined to become coveted investments for future generations.

ClassiCon
ClassiCon produces and markets Eileen Gray designs under license from the
worldwide license holder Aram Designs Ltd., London. In the 1970s Eileen Gray
worked with Zeev Aram on the introduction of her designs onto the world
market. In 1973 Eileen Gray granted the worldwide rights to manufacture and
distribute her designs to Aram Designs Ltd.
In producing our design classics, the accent is on quality. High quality means,
in concrete terms, that pieces in the Classic Collection of furniture are indelibly
marked and numbered consecutively. Th e ClassiCon signature provides a
guarantee that only high-grade materials and methods are used in production
– meeting all ecological requirements – and that every piece of furniture has
passed strict quality controls. Our logo off ers the assurance that each product
is an authentic replica of the original, made with the consent of the rights holders.
P 9

Th e juxtaposition of
classic with contemporary
is what gives our
collection its special appeal.
Th ese design objects
trace a sure and steady line
from yesteryear to today.

Eileen Gray, 1878 – 1976
From an aristocratic Irish-Scottish background, Eileen Gray studied architecture
and design in London and Paris. She fi rst made a name for herself as
a leading designer of lacquered walls and decorative panels. Later, with her
theories on design and architecture, she left an indelible mark on our ideas
about living. Thirty years after her death, she is still regarded as the epitome
of the Modern and she is the only woman whose name is spoken in the
same breath as those of Le Corbusier, Mies van der Rohe and Marcel Breuer.
Gray‘s tubular steel furniture, revolutionary in its day, is now regarded as
a classic. The high point of her career was her appointment to the Royal
Society of Art in London in 1972 as Royal Designer to Industry. The Museum
of Modern Art added her legendary Adjustable Table E 1027 to its permanent
design collection in 1978.

Otto Blümel, 1881 – 1973
Born in Augsburg, Otto Blümel studied architecture at the Technical
University of Munich and then took up painting. From 1907 to 1914 he
was director of the design department at the United Workshops for Art
in Craftsmanship in Munich, a pioneering force in the interior design and
decoration of the era. It was during this period that he produced furniture
designs that are still prized today. Otto Blümel’s most famous piece is the
Nymphenburg Coat Rack of 1908.
Nymphenburg
Eckart Muthesius, 1904 – 1989
Following studies at the Associated State School for Applied Arts in Berlin
and the London Polytechnic, Eckart Muthesius became a master student
in the studio of his father, Hermann Muthesius, the founder of the German
Werkbund. In 1929, Muthesius met Prince Yeshwant Rao Holkar Bahadur
in Oxford, the later Maharajah of Indore, who commissioned him to build
and furnish his palace “Manik Bagh”. Completed four years later, the palace
was a masterpiece of the Art Deco style. Muthesius complemented his
architecture with his own furniture and lamp designs. He went on to take
up a post as head of the Board of Planning and Restoration of the State
of Indore from 1936 to1939. When the war broke out, he was forced to
fl ee India and return to Berlin, where he worked as a freelance architect.

Konstantin Grcic, 1965
Konstantin Grcic was born in 1965 in Munich. Following training as a cabinet -
maker at Parnham College in England, he studied design at the Royal College
of Art in London from 1988-1990. Since setting up his own design studio in
Munich in 1991, he has developed furniture, products and lighting for some
of Europe’s leading design brands such as Agape, Authentics, Driade, Flos,
Iittala, Krups, Lamy, Magis, Moormann, Moroso, Muji, Plank and Whirlpool
and indeed many of his products have won international design awards. His
Mayday lamp, produced by Flos, was added to the permanent collection of
the Museum of Modern Art in New York and won the Compasso d’Oro in
2001. Konstantin Grcic has been chosen as Designer of the Year 2007 by
several different institutions. Grcic‘s book “KGID Konstantin Grcic Industrial
Design” was published by Phaidon in 2006.

Edward Barber and Jay Osgerby, 1969
This duo met while studying at the Royal College of Art in London and
started collaborating during their studies. They founded their E. Barber +
J. Osgerby design studio in 1996 and their fi rst piece, “Loop Table”, was
shown in 1998 in Milan by Cappellini. This initial design and the later “Flight
Stool” are today part of the permanent collection of both the Metropolitan
Museums of Art in New York and the Victoria & Albert Museum in London.
Besides ClassiCon, E. Barber + J. Osgerby create pieces for the collections
of companies such as Magis, Authentics, Cappellini, Venini and Isokon Plus.
In addition to receiving numerous international honours for their work, they
were nominated in 2004 for the Compasso d’Oro and named Designers of
the Year by Blueprint magazine in 2005.

Herbert H. Schultes, 1938
Born in 1938 in Freiburg, Herbert H. Schultes completed engineering and
design studies in Munich. From 1985-2000, he was chief designer in charge
of worldwide industrial and corporate design for Siemens AG – fi rst as
managing director of Siemens Design und Messe GmbH and then of its later
incarnation, designafairs GmbH. He opened his own design studio in 2000
in Inning at the Ammersee. As a leading member of many academies and
institutions, he has made a lasting contribution to promoting German design.
His dedication was recognized in 2001 when he was awarded the “Bundespreis
für Förderer des Designs” and also the order of the “Verdienstkreuz
am Bande der Bundesrepublik Deutschland”.

ForUse, 1973, 1968, 1971
The three designers making up the ForUse trio come from widely divergent
backgrounds: Sven Jonke was born in 1973 in Bremen, Christoph Katzler in
1968 in Vienna and Nikola Radeljkovic in 1971 in Zagreb. Nikola Radeljkovic
and Sven Jonke studied design at the University of Architecture in Zagreb,
while Christoph Katzler received his degree from the University of Applied
Arts in Vienna. In 1998 the three joined forces under the name “ForUse”.
Their interdisciplinary approach encompasses the fi elds of architecture,
industrial design, lighting, furniture and street furniture, and they have also
made a name for themselves in the world of stage design. Besides
ClassiCon, their clients include Cappellini, Magis and Zanotta.

Christoph Böninger, 1957
P 63
Christoph Böninger studied industrial design in Munich and Los Angeles.
As his dissertation project, he designed the world’s fi rst laptop computer,
on display today at the Pinakothek der Moderne in Munich. Following his
studies, he set up a design department for Siemens in the USA and worked
as a design manager and managing director of Siemens until 2006. In 2010
he founded Auerberg, an author label for designers and architects. Christoph
Böninger has designed numerous pieces of furniture, some of which are
today in the permanent collections of design museums, for example the
height-adjustable “SAX” table for ClassiCon.

Clemens Weisshaar, 1975
Clemens Weisshaar was born in 1977 in Munich. After an apprenticeship as
a metal worker he studied Product Design at Central Saint Martins College
of Art and Design and the Royal College of Art in London. After three years
as the assistant to Konstantin Grcic he founded his own offi ce in 2000. He
consults Rem Koolhaas’ research fi rm AMO in industrial-design-related
issues and works on projects ranging from strategic consulting to exhibition
architecture to product design. Weisshaar works and lives in Munich and
Stockholm. The work of Kram/Weisshaar is part of the permament collections
of Die Neue Sammlung, Munich, the Vitra Design Museum in Weil am
Rhein and the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris.

Sauerbruch Hutton, Louisa Hutton 1957, Matthias Sauerbruch 1955
Louisa Hutton and Matthias Sauerbruch studied at the Architectural
Association of London. From 1995 to 2007 Matthias Sauerbruch held
professorships at the Technical University of Berlin and the State Academy
of Art and Design, Stuttgart. Both have been teaching at the Harvard
Graduate School of Design since 2007. Architects Louisa Hutton and
Matthias Sauerbruch have developed a signature architectural language that
has brought the Sauerbruch Hutton agency for architecture, urbanism and
design international recognition since its founding in 1989. A holistic approach
to planning, from urban development all the way to furniture design, merges
functionality with exacting architectural demands, sensuality with environmental
sustainability. Sauerbruch Hutton’s projects, among them the Federal
Environmental Agency in Dessau (2005) and the Brandhorst Museum in
Munich (2008), have been awarded numerous prizes. Their fi rst highrise,
the GSW Headquarters in Berlin (1999), became part of the architecture
collection of the MoMA in New York in 2009.

ClassiCon and Architecture
Our company headquarters in Munich
If we were to go off in search of the ideal place where future and past can meet P in 89
order to reach an agreement on what’s right for the present, the ClassiCon building in
Munich would be one of our fi rst choices. Th e modern building, designed by Joachim
Jürke, is made of glass, wood and concrete, with a wood-lanked rooft op terrace
off ering a magnifi cent panoramic view of the Alps.
Th e company headquarters, including offi ces, warehouse
and showrooms have been located here since 2003.

ClassiCon – „the people behind“
Our team in Munich
Behind every company there’s a dedicated team. And every member of that
team plays a part in the company’s success. A ClassiCon product passes
through many diff erent stations on its way from design sketch to end
customer. Each staff member accompanies it part of the way before it sets
off for one of around 52 countries worldwide.
Get to know us. We’re looking forward to your visit.
