Horst Bruning Seating

Horst Bruning is a designer whose keys ideas are minimalism, functionality, durability and the spirit of the time. On the other hand, however, Bruning's furniture is timeless. Bruning studied Architecture and Interior Design at the College of Graphic Arts in Hamburg until 1956. In 1963, he set up an architecture and design office in Stuttgart. During this period, Bruning came in contact with Kill International. Kill International is an established and famous manufacturer, who has also produced many designs by Preben Fabricius and Jörgen Kastholm. Bruning has also worked together with this architect duo.
