Stefan Heinz, Furniture construction, Chair construction and Design
The frame furniture maker and carpenter Stefan Heinz is both a lone fighter and a network participant. He specializes in custom-made furniture for chairs, tables and side-furniture. This has always required collaboration with other trades such as upholstery, carving and varnishing. The products are extremely diverse, he implements the wishes of designers, architects and private customers and not only produces individual furniture frames, but also exhibition architecture, home accessories and paravents. In this he implements his own designs, always from solid wood, whether as a one-off, prototype or in small series. The company plans to launch its own collection of self-designed and self-built furniture under its own label together with a design studio from Dresden/Germany in 2024.
