Established in 1996 by three friends with a shared passion for classic metal furniture, Müller Möbelfabrikation has grown steadily over the last decade and a half into one of Europe's most interesting contemporary furniture manufacturers.
They don't do anything especially revolutionary, and there is certainly no danger of them ever redefining the fabric of furniture design.
However, they are currently producing some of the most interesting, brash and accessible furniture on the market, and proving that quality craftsmanship and good design will always triumph over trends and fashions.
The initial "Classic Line Collection" of self-designed fairly beefy office furniture has been supplemented and complimented over the years by new, and lighter, collections created in co-operation with design studios such as 040studio, Lippert Studios or Delphin Design.
And all produced via old-skool, hands on production in Germany.
Reason enough for us to take a closer look.
And so ahead of Orgatec 2012 we visited Müller Möbelfabrikation at their Augsburg factory to check out the production process. Suffice to say it sparked. A lot.
