Justus Kolberg
Justus Kolberg, born in 1962, having completed his studies as an industrial designer at the Muthesius College in Kiel, moved to Italy where he worked for a number of international companies, such as Castelli, Techno or Studio Giancarlo Piretti. He rapidly established himself as a well-respected designer, and returned to Germany in 1992 in order to work for Wilkhahn, developing several best-selling conference and seating series. In 1997, Justus Kolberg started freelancing from his new home base in Hamburg. He has a passion for contract seating and tables. His success is based on his genuine interest and curiosity for modern technical architecture – he has successfully integrated some of these concepts into his work for Kusch+Co.
His motto “with sensitive intelligence to innovative simplicity” reveals within itself an explanation of his approach: being sensitive for the needs of the user, he implements a lot of intelligent functions inside the products. These functions are well hidden behind the good design, what makes the user admire the aesthetic at the first sight, and appreciate the comfort while sitting.
