About the Item
Herbert Hirche started his career as a carpenter's apprentice during the early 1930s at the Bauhaus in Dessau where he studied under different teachers such as Wassily Kandinsky and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. He later went on to work directly for van der Rohe from 1934 to 1938 in his Berlin office.
After working for Hirche Egon Eiermann during the war years, Hirche was appointed a professor at the College of Applied Arts in Berlin-Weissensee in 1948 and from 1948 to 1975 he was head of Interior and Furniture Design at the Academy of Fine Arts in Stuttgart. From 1960 to 1970 he was also President of ‘German Industrial Designers’.
His design work spanned many different areas from radio and television design for Braun to various industrial and commercial designs such as his detachable home and office furniture which buyers were able to assemble themselves.
His works have been exhibited at various international fairs such as the Triennale Milan in 1957 and the World Exhibition in Brussels 1958. In the mid 1960s, his works were displayed at the Documenta III in Kassel in the department of Industrial Design.
