The SOBO collection by Shantala Chandel and Matthias Gschwendtner emphasizes the tactile essence of craftsmanship, epitomized by the SOBO jug. Finally, Judith Haase's LOLA collection merges architecture and furniture in versatile, expandable designs made from polished aluminum and mouth-blown glass.
