transcending mental and formal boundaries is the response of Lars Krückeberg (whom we met in Beijing), Wolfram Putz,Thomas Willemeit and Gregor Hoheisel to constant change in a contemporary dynamic society.
founded in 1998 in Los Angeles as the label GRAFT for architecture,design, music and the pursuit of happiness ,their exhibition installation is a visualization of an exemplary design and communication process that transforms all traditional categories of furniture, architecture and urban environment into one continuous landscape. the working methods of GRAFT unite semantic, syntactic and phenomenological aspects; their buildings are distinguished by scenographic elements of film with space-time references, a farreaching constructional research in cooperation with diverse companies as well as an intense dialog with clients. the interactive exhibition lounge GRAFTWORLD integrates projects that were created in the GRAFT studios in Berlin, Beijing and Los Angeles and range between hotels in Tiflis and Vancouver, resorts in the caribbean, villas in Berlin and Mallorca and not to mention Brad Pitt´s guesthouse&studios in LA.
