Kurt Thut

This TV-documentary about designer/architect Kurt Thut has two main motives: the first is that Kurt Thut doesn’t believe "in a difference between interior and exterior architecture” and therefore has remained both an architect and a furniture designer. The second refers to a remark that Kurt Thut made in a discussion of the work of American designer-architects Charles and Ray Eames: "Make something out of what there is." Kurt Thut often uses unusual and surprising materials for his furniture - airplane plywood, for instance, or, in the case of an armchair he is currently developing, packing materials.
