JÜRG HEUBERGER

Multi-talented in design matters: Swiss architect and designer, Jürg Heuberger is the creator of many successful LAUFEN designs, such as the open bathroom furniture series.

The Swiss architect and designer Jürg Heuberger is multi-talented in design matters. He was born in Basel in 1945 and worked for many years as an architect and designer in Paris and in Switzerland. He has created many successful designs for LAUFEN since 1995 – including the open and the case and case plus bathroom series, the Lb3 faucet series, the retro graphics of the mimo bathroom series and the relaunch of the talux washbasin classic. Besides architectural and interior design projects, Heuberger, who is a trained painter and sculptor, still finds time for artistic work. Above all, his designs are marked by his excellent sensitivity for material, form and product use.

The washbasins in the talux series are one example: Heuberger has succeeded in carefully updating this classic whilst still preserving the unique character of the series, which lives on the contrast between right-angles, soft lines and gently asymmetry. With open, he has succeeded in creating yet another work of art: furniture designed in an architecturally modernist style which, instead of stealing the show, provides a stage for various LAUFEN washbasin series.
