Stefan Diez's prototype for the Upon series wall luggage / coat rack is a remarkable sculpture in itself. This prototype is made of wood, but the production example developed for a German manufacturer is made in metal making this example very unique. An excellent example of new German craft, innovation and design. Pictures included show the fascinatingly unique and innovative process by which this was made. Stefan Diez was born 1971 and studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Stuttgart. He worked shortly for Richard Sapper and later on two years for Konstantin Grcic before he opened his Munich office in 2003.
