Frame of solid wood, clearly varnished or black-stained. Frame of steel tubing with rubber webbing. Upholstery: Polyurethane with polyester fibre. Cover in fabric or leather. Modern art of the 20th and 21st centuries deserves an appropriate setting, with a building and its furniture that is just as modern. Berlin architects Sauerbruch Hutton were thus faced with an exciting challengewhen asked to design the Museum Brandhorst in Munich. Three different seating solutions were developed for the museum that opened in 2009 – for the cafeteria, the foyer, the conference and lecture rooms as well as the lounge. ClassiCon developed the designs to the point of series production in close collaboration with the architects. Along with demanding expectations in terms of form and quality, the typical wear and tear that the furniture would be subjected to in the public space had also to be taken into consideration. Its durability was ensured by means of various tests.

German fashion creative brand CLASSICON, founded in 1990 in Munich, Germany. ClassiCon has always sought to bring high-quality design works to every corner of the world, to meet people's most real and practical functional needs and timeless beauty, without being affected by fashion trends. Germany's industrial design and product design has always been a world leader, while CLASSICON is the leader in German furniture design. Its design is different from the short-lived fashion trend, and it is brave to pursue the ultimate originality, with both functionalism and timeless beauty. . ClassiCon believes that the most important thing is not the style but the quality. It refuses to put the function in the design after the beauty, while opposing the over-decoration, and always adopts an inclusive attitude towards the new design concept.
ClassiCon recognizes the power of design as a global language and is therefore happy to work with great designers from around the world to create a diverse, international product. Such as female architect Eileen Gray, industrial designer Norman Cherner, German architect Eckart Muthesius and so on.
ClassiCon is fully trusted by young designers. The Bell side table was designed by the new designer Sebastian Herkner for ClassiCon, which has become the brand's most iconic representative. Sebastian Herkner is a very talented young designer. Since 2008, he has appeared in the eyes of international audiences with his enthusiastic awards.
From the German Heimtextil “Newcomer Innovation Award” to the “Best Communication Concept Award” in Cologne 2009, from the German Red Dot Award in 2010 to the 2011 Delta Industrial Design Award “Delta Award”, he was included.
Sebastian Herkner's favorite design style is not the usual concept, "German design" gives people a very precise and rational cold and straight line.
When designing the Bell series side table, he decided to challenge the tradition of making table legs with the lightweight, fragile material of hand-made glass and making the table top with metal. However, the technicians who can blow out the exquisite hand-made glass have become less and less in Western Europe. He finally found the right craft in Eastern Europe, so that this wonderful series can be presented to the world.
Bell's success has also made the ClassiCon brand famous. This eye-catching brand has always created a number of stunning modern furniture with the values of “classic modern design”.
