Markus Benesch previews pieces of his new furniture and wallpaper collection: Brickollection.
“Springtime always gives me shivers and makes my heart pound a bit faster – the awakening of nature – flowers forcing their way through old snow, persistent but always with a big smile on their petals. I love how after the grey winter days the thriving dominance of light, colors and shapes are perceived even more intensely.
What a relief – its the moment when I cherish the visual overdose and enjoy the beauty of it, without judging. This is my favorite state: being free of judgement and perceiving creatures and objects in their unbiased beauty – being enchanted by their presence and radiation. I don’t care much about aesthetics or style - I absorb the radiance and aura of an object or architecture and then I decide to let my intellect interfere, if at all.
I admire furniture, architecture or a concept when it communicates instantly with me on a completely non-intellectual level – that is maybe the closest I get to myself.”
