BraunBlanquet

BraunBlanquet is a design practice and brand active across architecture, product design, and spatial installations. Known for a cross-disciplinary approach, the studio integrates architectural thinking with industrial design to create environments, furnishings, and experiential graphics.

The name derives from the two founders who share the surnames Braun and Blanquet. The studio was established in the early 2010s in Berlin, with a remit that ranges from prototyping furniture to composing temporary installations for cultural events. Early work focused on exploratory prototypes and small-scale commissions, gradually expanding to public-facing projects and collaborations with cultural institutions.

BraunBlanquet's practice centers on modular systems, material honesty, and sustainable fabrication. The studio often uses locally sourced woods, metal, concrete, and recycled composites, favoring simple geometry, tactile finishes, and precise detailing. Its projects typically combine functional seating or furnishings with spatial configurations designed for urban or gallery contexts.

In design discourse, BraunBlanquet is recognized for its collaborative process and openness to cross-sector partnerships. The firm has participated in group exhibitions and published design essays, contributing to debates on scale, craft, and sustainability. While the practice remains relatively small, its work is cited as influential in discussions of modularity and responsible production.
