A GUEST OF KARE CEO JÜRGEN REITER

The co-founder and CEO of KARE, Jürgen Reiter, invites you to visit him. On the occasion of the company's 40th anniversary, the Munich native opens the doors to his realm full of art and found objects with history. He tells us what matters when furnishing, where his favorite decorative pieces come from and shows us where he can best relax and be inspired.

“The common thread in my flat is a lot memorabilia, From many trips – there were times when I was on the road 200 days a year.“

The source of his inspiration

"Because the apartment holds so many memories, it is like a nest. It's not an exhibit, it's my home and the place where my soul lives." The chief designer shows us his colorful old apartment in Munich's Lehel district. It is his retreat, with plenty of space for inspiration. Here we find souvenirs from all over the world, art and comics, but also classics with history.

THE PUNK BAROQUE STYLE

"An object must tell a story and not necessarily fit universally". This quote sums up the style of Jürgen Reiter. All of his furniture and decorative pieces are designed not only to fit together, but also to look special.

THE STYLE POMP MEETS POP ART

"We often find sensational objects and then choose concepts that fit them and build the space around them."

Jürgen Reiter, CEO Kare Design
