Nanna Ditzel
Nanna Ditzel (1923-2005), with her postmodernism attitude and rebellion against tradition, became a leading figure in the renewal of Danish design in the 1990's, well after her 70th birthday. Very often, her works had a subjective starting point, which was contrary to specific problems to be solved. However, she had a magnificent ability to transform her artistic dreams into very functional and purposeful designs.
Meeting Nanna Ditzel in person led to an irresistible urge to put her furniture in your home. In part due to her unparalleled innovative talent, but also in hopes that her personality would have had a contagious effect on your rooms. At an age when most other people have long since retired, the grand old lady of modern design continued to attract worldwide attention and she welcomed the inspiration that came from new materials and production methods.
Mater launched at Maison & Objet international lifestyle and design trade fair in Paris in 2007. This Danish studio creates visually appealing products with sense of purpose, an embodiment of the brand's mission to merge design, craftsmanship, and ethics.
From home lighting to tables and seating, Mater employs sustainably produced materials and methods, ensuring a minimal environmental footprint. Collaborating with artisans in different countries enriches Mater’s product range but also highlights the importance of mutually beneficial relationships and a tireless commitment to sourcing international talent.
