Conde House
Conde House realizes the harmony of wood, craftsmanship, design and function in an unprecedented combination of Japanese furniture style, Japanese wood craftsmanship and modern European design. Conde House has been in contact with Europe for more than 40 years. From the fusion of Japanese furnishing culture with German and Scandinavian design, furniture of elemental strength and simple forms has emerged during this time: Exceptionally puristic and timeless, the collections of Conde House set clear accents in design and function. The furniture pieces of Conde House reflect on the essentials. They are able to free rooms from unnecessary ballast. And they create an atmosphere of great tranquility.
Conde House - striving for perfection
Independent, self-contained design, unconditional attention to detail and the greatest care in craftsmanship, which takes the material seriously - these are the principles of Conde House, which are implemented in its own manufactory in Asahikawa, in the north of Japan. Traditional handicraft methods, the sustainable use of the basic material, wood and other selected materials in combination with the use of the most modern processing technology make it possible to create unique objects in wood.
Conde House - woodworking in perfection
The Japanese furniture culture is essentially based on the natural material wood. On this basis, Conde House has risen to become one of the best solid wood furniture manufacturers in the world. The most commonly used wood species are walnut, white oak, maple or birch. Particularly striking is the attention paid to the interesting grains, the "image" of the wood. It remains clearly visible even after processing and finishing. Many table tops, for example, are cut from a log, opened up like a book and joined together in mirror image. This creates a unique symmetry in the grain and thus in the visual appearance of the piece of furniture. Conde House impresses with hand-brushed surfaces, intricate wood joints and design down to the last detail.
Conde House and Peter Maly - East meets West
Clarity and purism of the Bauhaus combined with Japanese perfection: The designs of the German designer Peter Maly, made especially for Conde House, impress with their reduction and precision. The line concept of this refined, simple furniture is determined by clear functionality. The Tosai collection, for example, combines selected solid wood in exciting material contrast with stainless steel to create captivating new forms. Other collections, such as the Barringer coffee tables by Atilla Kuzu, give the impression that a European designer has fully embraced the Japanese way of life and the resulting furniture style. Conde House furniture is simple, functional and beautiful in a highly sophisticated way. We rationally grasp their elegance, but just as well we intuitively like them. And we like to let them inspire us and accompany us for a lifetime.
