Barbara Benz' interviews with Jehs & Laub

Communication is a question of attitude. This was the motto for Barbara Benz’s meeting with the Stuttgart designers Markus Jehs and Jürgen Laub for a relaxed chat at this year’s Cologne Furniture Fair.

Lightness and elegance characterise the duo’s furniture. Like “Mell”, a system consisting of seating furniture that can be combined individually, first presented at COR 2012. “Poster furniture very often is static and subordinate to the architecture,” says Laub. Mell is discreet and cubical. That gives it the best chance of being popular with architects. But is it comfortable? The name says it all – Mellow. “These days, furniture is manufactured with the most up-to-date technology,” Jehs emphasises. And at a reasonable price. That makes the Swabian happy.
