Cartagenas Dining Table A feast for the eyes serves ames with the new Cartagenas dining table, which joins the collection now. Designed by Sebastian Herkner, the table’s intricate webbing in strong colours matches the existing dining chairs of the series. Its obround tabletop is made from sleek metal or marble, balancing out the vivid colours of the base. This collection is an ode to Cartagena, the lively coastal metropolis on Colombia's Caribbean coast. It has long been an energetic melting-pot, where Colombia’s diverse ethnic communities live side-by-side, creating a city landscape where various cultural backgrounds merge with each other. When walking through its streets and alleyways, new colours, patterns, and perspectives await behind every corner – just like these pieces reveal a new side from every angle.
Sebastian Herkner was born in Bad Mergentheim in 1981. He studied product design at HfG Offenbach am Main, and already focused on designing objects and furniture merging various cultural contexts during his studies. In 2006 he founded his own studio for objects, interior design and exhibition design in Offenbach am Main.
Today, Sebastian Herkner works for international companies, designs furniture and lamps, porcelain and glass, and also curates and stages exhibitions dealing with design. His success is already reflected in numerous awards and prizes, among them the 2011 German Design Award in the Newcomer category and the 2015 EDIDA Elle Decoration International Design Award as Best International Newcomer. Most recently, Sebastian Herkner was appointed guest of honour at imm Cologne 2016 to present his concept for “Das Haus – Interiors on Stage”.
