Visually light and
constructively smart
The work of Studio Meike Harde focuses on several areas: using both an experimental-constructive basis and looking to apply an allegoric-conceptual approach in every project.
Common materials appear in new contexts and a special language of shapes overcomes established forms – resulting in upholstery, lighting or other furniture.
