The title of the catalog “Ingo Maurer intim” (Ingo Maurer close up) alludes to how Ingo Maurer sees his work. In close and trusting collaboration with his team, Maurer develops each step from the initial sketch to the final product to the sales process. “Design or what?” alludes to the exciting interaction of design, art, and architecture. Because with Maurer’s objects the question often arises of how, if at all, they can be pigeonholed in terms of style.
