Meet the two friends behind Schmahl+Schnippering 


Maximilian Schmahl and Fabian Schnippering are two talented German designers specialising in furniture, interior design and design concepts. The designers studied Product Design together at the Bauhaus University Weimar and found that they share a profound love for decisive details and soft shapes in their designs. In 2013, they established their own studio; Schmahl + Schnippering.

With a belief that designs are a part of our culture, the studio creates objects that reflect the user’s needs. Their products are designed to integrate and interact with people as a natural part of their daily life.

The functional approach to design and shared theoretical background is visible in the Sentrum side table. The design follows the principle of simplicity as it has been stripped from all unnecessary elements. What is left is a strong base and geometrical expression with the functionalities at the centre of attention. The S-shaped construction creates two spaces for storage on both sides to enhance the usability of the side table.
