Design story

When Burkhard Schmitz, Claudia Plikat, Nicolai Neubert, and Carola Zwick founded Studio 7.5 in Berlin, Germany, they were looking to work on projects that interested them and were seeking freedom from rules, roles, and titles.

When designing products for clients, Studio 7.5 moves quickly and smartly, progressing from the concept stage to the model shop, sometimes within a day or two, where they begin to create rough prototypes of the product, whatever it may be. "You really have to work in three dimensions when designing products," they say, "so we don't spend much time on fancy renderings. Computer drawings just don't give you the feel or the touch."

The joy the group derives from its work is obvious. As Burkhard, Nicolai, and Carola, who are also university professors, tell their students, "If you want to be rich, go work in a bank. If you want to be famous, go rob the bank. But if creating things is fun for you, become a designer and you'll be a king. It's the best profession in the world." Especially when you have the freedom to do it your own way.
