“My pieces have a relationship with the space they’re in;
they change it and define it. They don’t stay hidden in the background.
They require – and they offer – a high visual standard.”
With his concept of ‘usable beauty’, this designers pieces are relieved of the separation between practicality pure works of art.
The pieces explore interior and exterior, stillness and movement. They play with space of the room, with light and shadow, mirroring and reflection, and define it and ones own perception anew.
The designer and qualified cabinet maker breaks with traditional conventions and habits of visual perception in his designs. Arne Leucht is engaged within a space which examines and deconstructs materials, visual axes and makes them to something new and custom.
