Entwickeln mit Alfredo
October 1st 2021
Designed By on page 8, Girsberger
The start of a frequent collaboration was Alfredo Häberli's commission to design special furniture for Fritz Glarner's Rockefeller Dining Room in the Museum Haus Konstruktiv. According to the designer's specifications, Girsberger took on the constructive development and manufacture of the objects such as the large glass table with lamp. The wire chairs were a redesign of already existing designs. Prototypes were used to determine the exact bending radii and ergonomic proportions of the chair. Later, the chairs were added to the Girsberger range as a series model under the name Alambre. Other projects realised with Alfredo Häberli were the «Mediakoje» in the concept house Haussicht by Baufritz, as well as the large storage cabinets of the Designsammlung in the Museum für Gestaltung Zurich. The most recent cooperation project is the realisation of the workplaces in the Alfrano Boutique in Zurich.
