Emblems

In an ongoing series the Sammlung Walter brand mark will be reinterpreted by changing designers, illustrators and artists. The emblem always shows the three colours with identical square measures. This serves as a symbol for the production methods DIY, Industrial and Craft.

Information

Eunjung Kwak is a Berlin based graphic designer who has a keen sense of translating multi-dimensional aspects of a subject into concise yet poetic visual analysis.

Information

The artist Suse Bauer (born 1979 in Erfurt) designed the Sammlung Walter emblem for the period from September 2018 onwards. Thank you, for this wonderful paper work.

Suse Bauer's works are characterized by the question how art is used as a mediator for sketching utopias and how it acts as a hinge between reality and possibility.

Her oeuvre ranges from small-format paper works to large-scale mural reliefs, and includes drawings, digital prints, and objects made out of concrete and ceramics.

Information

Could it be more fitting? The debut of emblems was designed by Studio Hellllo.

The works of the designers Anna Schilling & Johannes Elllmer are distinguished by their typographic finesse and their love for illustration.
When Hellllo was asked to describe their way of working, they answered: We translate content into visible forms. Therefore we always strive to keep our aesthetic repertoire in motion.

Many thanks for this moving start.

Philosophy

Sammlung Walter legt höchsten Wert auf Nachhaltigkeit. Bereits heute bestehen unsere textilen Produkte nahezu vollständig aus ökologischen Materialien. Bei einzelnen, kleineren Bestandteilen, bei denen dieses seitens der Zulieferer noch nicht möglich ist, arbeiten wir aktiv an einer Verwirklichung. Die Qualität unserer, allesamt in Deutschland gefertigten Produkte, entsteht durch die Zusammenarbeit verschiedener Experten und ihren besonderem Fachwissen.

Unsere Entscheidungen werden immer im Blick der Nachhaltigkeit getroffen. Durch lange Recherchearbeit treffen wir nach besten Gewissen unsere Entscheidungen, wie Produkte geschaffen werden sollen. Dabei steht eine faire Arbeit bei der Produktion an erster Stelle.

Auch ökologischen Standard möchten wir mehr und mehr in unsere Normalität bringen und versuchen hier uns eine neue Arbeitswelt mehr und mehr aufzubauen. So beziehen wir zum Beispiel kbA Baumwoll- Garn aus Italien, GOTS zertifizierte Walkstoffe aus Österreich sowie ausschliesslich Holz aus Europäischer Forstwirtschaft.
