Hannes Wettstein

Hannes Wettstein (1958-2008) was one of Switzerland's most influential designers, excelling in industrial design, furniture, and architecture. He rethought traditional design principles, exploring human behavior, spatial organization, and the purpose of objects. His passion for art and technology drove his innovative solutions. Describing himself as an anarchist, he broke boundaries and challenged norms, often resulting in surprisingly simple yet precise designs. Wettstein significantly impacted contemporary design by uniting creativity with rational functionalism, creating several notable works and interiors.
