1995 i started my work as a freelancing designer with the main focus on light & shadow-, graphic- and steeldesign.
From 1996 till 2011 participated on several projects of 3deluxe and Lightlife as a free employee for light and media technology
(KW Club Munich, Expo2000 Germany, Expo02 Switzerland, Fifa Footballglobe, Cocoon Club FFM, Deutsche Börse, Orsam, etc.).
2005 we founded the Atelier 51, an open workspace for art and design in Bocholt.
In 2007, the SHA-DO lamp was one of the winners of the european contest of innovative lighting-design „NACHLUX“ and till then it was produced by the company Absolut Lighting under the name „Shining“.
2008 follows the square version of the SHA-DO lamp the SHA-DO². Since then we have presented our works at many exhibitions in and around Germany.
Until now I have designed many fireplaces, outdoor & inddor lights and polygon sculptures for the Atelier 51.
The development of the Bloom series started in 2020 and was completed in 2024.
