Wolfgang Feierbach, Altenstadt, Germany, 1968

Jun 22

“Designer, inventor and engineer Wolfgang Feierbach dedicated his entire life to the development of plastics and their use in design and architecture. His brand FG Design was founded in the mid 1960s in the small provincial town Altenstadt, near Frankfurt am Main in Germany.

At the same time, he began to produce plastic furniture in contemporary organic pop-art style and began to develop a system for the construction of plastic prefabricated houses. His dream to develop industrially-manufactured homes ended up with only two examples realized for him. The first of these has plastic modules forming the facades of the first level, floating above the masonry constructed ground floor. It is now used as offices for the FG brand. In the second, more complex home, Wolfgang Feierbach lives with his wife until today. The interior surprises with the diverse and rich decorations combining Feierbach’s furniture from the 1960s with his later creations, all with bold postmodern aesthetics.” via @haus_oft 🔍
