Six interior design studios that make your life more beautiful
Modern, edgy or classic? - Six interior design studios & stores for a stylish home
The numerous interior design studios and stores prove that Düsseldorf also focuses on inner values and that it's not just the surface that counts! Are you looking for inspiration to make your home more beautiful? Do you want a large dining table, a chic sofa or a completely new living concept? Are you looking for handmade ceramics or terrazzo accessories made in Italy? You should know these six object and interior design specialists.
Heartfelt desire
You can already guess it - Herzbegehrt puts its heart and soul into its work. The interior design store in Niederkassel demonstrates a love of detail. The interior designers Alexa Bügers and Kerstin Vöge not only develop complete interior design concepts and provide individual interior design advice. It is precisely the smaller things in life that the makers of Herzbegehrt focus on. Bügers and Vöge select furniture, home accessories and stationery with great sensitivity. In addition to selected major brands such as the Scandinavian furniture manufacturers Hay and Muuto, their range includes products from exclusive manufacturers that are often made by hand and therefore tell their very own story.
69 m²
Two energetic women are also at work at 69 m². Alexa Müller and Babette Andrees complement each other perfectly when working on new furnishing concepts, which is not least due to their biographies: Babette Andrees is an architect who has lived and worked in Denmark and Australia, among other places, while Alexa Müller, a trained industrial clerk, was already selling furniture and vintage design objects from the 20th century as the owner of the interior design store 69 m² before they joined forces. Joining forces is beneficial for everyone involved: customers of Müller and Andrees' design studio can enjoy individually designed interiors, some of which incorporate furniture and objects that have become rare, which Alexa Müller tracks down across Europe with great enthusiasm and a good hand. If you don't want to take advantage of the full service or would like to create your own living concept, many of the vintage pieces of furniture are available for purchase at the 69 m² headquarters on Lindenstraße in Flingern.
Luizzo
Terrazzo is at the heart of the company founded by Luisa Reischmann. The cast stone technique has existed since ancient times and is primarily known as a floor covering. Reischmann designs furniture and home accessories for Luizzo. These include side tables and trays, which are manufactured in Italy and sold on Lorettostrasse - as well as other lifestyle products such as body care, textiles and vegan scented candles made from soy wax. Luisa Reischmann also offers customized terrazzo products on request, both for private and business customers. Be it terrazzo tiles for flooring, kitchen worktops or custom-made flower pots. Luizzo offers a selection of over 50 terrazzo mixtures. A consultation and sample order is therefore recommended.
Out of everyday life
The name of the store is just as well composed as the carefully curated range, which focuses on new, unusual interior brands. Anyone entering Out of Alltag for the first time is often amazed and enthusiastic. Minimalism and reduction determine the design language of the furniture, but the choice of colors is usually so lively that it never seems cool or reserved. One highlight is the label of Florian Vogel and Carolin Kreidel: Victor Foxtrot from Hamburg. Vogel worked for several years for Ingo Maurer, the best-known German lighting designer, who created luminaires such as "Zettel'z" and "Porca Miseria!". His joy in leaving the comfort zone also seems to inspire Vogel and Kreidel, whose furniture and lights captivate with their simple yet sophisticated design in combination with bold signal colors. At Out of Alltag, however, there is also a place for interior design from the region, such as Kiyo, a Düsseldorf furniture brand. The name of the store says it all and an escape from everyday life could hardly be more beautiful.
Smow
Are you looking for design classics by Charles & Ray Eames, Arne Jacobsen or Verner Panton? Or rather fans of contemporary furniture design by designers such as Konstantin Grcic and Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec? Regardless of whether you prefer modern or modernist designs - you'll find what you're looking for at Smow. The corner store on the beautiful Lorettostrasse brings together everything that's top-notch in the world of interior design. Chairs by Vitra and Thonet, the legendary shelving units by USM Haller and String and lamps by Louis Poulsen await you here. Mirrors, vases, trays, blankets and cushions from international collections are also on offer. There is virtually nothing that is not available. It's no wonder that Smow can also provide valuable services in furnishing and lighting planning and is one of Düsseldorf's most popular design studios.
Redbeard Interior
The "red beards" are at home in the courtyard of the Alte Farbwerke on Ronsdorfer Straße. Max Grütering and Lennart Efsing, who met while studying interior design at the Peter Behrens School of Art Düsseldorf, have been working together under the name Redbeard Interior since 2017. They are supported by an interdisciplinary young team of interior architects, product designers, carpenters and craftsmen, both in large and in detail. In addition to furnishing concepts, which they often implement for catering establishments and in which the team skillfully combines materials such as steel, glass, wood and natural stone, the designers also show great commitment on a smaller scale. A selection of their self-developed prototypes such as sideboards, lights, steel chairs and shelves can also be admired and ordered in their studio in Hall 27. And their love of furniture goes even further: the refurbishment of unique pieces of furniture is in good hands with the Redbeards. A little tip: the cult coffee roastery Schvarz and the Theaterkantine, a small independent private theater, are located in the same courtyard. So it's worth coming here twice or three times over.
