Green Luxury Interior Magazine 4/13

The magazine Green Luxury Interior dedicated an issue to the relationship between art, materiality, and exclusive living spaces, presenting selected works by Felix Schwake.

The publication focused on the question of how function and spatial atmosphere can be combined without reducing design to decorative effects. The featured works consciously move between architecture, furniture, and functional art. They follow a reduced geometric order and concentrate on material, proportion, and use.

The designs are not understood as luxury objects in the traditional sense, but as an attempt to create calmness and clarity within spaces. Reduction is not interpreted as deprivation, but as a deliberate concentration on what is essential. Functions are integrated into the geometry so that the objects appear calm and self-evident.

The works follow the attitude that architecture and interior design should serve as a background for life. Spaces and objects are meant to support perception rather than constantly demand attention. Materiality, light effects, and spatial atmosphere therefore gain particular significance.

Especially in the context of high-end residential spaces, this leads to a different understanding of luxury: not excess or ornamental complexity is at the forefront, but precision, permanence, and the quality of spatial experience.

The publication also points to an increasing international engagement with design that does not separate function, art, and architecture. The works of Felix Schwake operate precisely within this field of tension — between use, space, and atmospheric impact.
