Rainer Krause was a pharmacist with a passion for design, who spent his vacations at furniture fairs and filled his pharmacy with contemporary design pieces.

When a customer suggested he was missing his true vocation, he promptly shut up shop and opened showrooms in a German castle to display editions of lighting, furniture, art and jewellery (a quartet of design genres) in 1987.

Designers like Antonio Citterio (who designed the Cerruti store in New York) make pieces exclusively for him and the spectacular lighting collection has grown to include ranges by Hans Heisz, Heiko Bleuel and Carbone and Vudafieri.
