Future generations will have the chance to read the Rams' manifesto and philosophy of "good design" through this building.The unique twin house is located within the Roter Hang estate in Kronberg, which was designed to house Braun employees. Rams is undertaking the project in partnership with architect Rudolf Kramer after purchasing a small plot of land on the site.<img src="https://images.aposto.com/2022/5/4/1655380604291.jpeg" style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px; border-style: none; position: relative; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; box-sizing: border-box;" ratio="1.78" width="550" fr-original-style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable">Surrounded by Taunus woodlands, the house in Kronberg was built and furnished according to a design by Rams. Rams has lived in the house with his wife since 1971. In their home, the couple of courses used Vitsœ furniture systems designed by Rams. Rams lists the reasons for this choice as follows: Designing furniture that only he would like to have and getting to know them during daily use to better understand where they could be improved. In cases where the Vitsœ program was incomplete, they chose furniture from other designers with a similar point of view, such as the Thonet 214 chairs around the dining table or the Fritz Hansen stools at the table.In the center of the living room is the 620 armchair, designed by Rams. The living room overlooks the garden and is a lively and much-used space. Here they sit together, talk, entertain friends and watch TV. Plants, books, and pictures complete the room. The main goal behind this interior design is simplicity and openness. Objects are not in the foreground just because they recede into the background. Their small number and unobtrusiveness create space. The order is liberating, not restrictive.<img src="https://images.aposto.com/2022/5/4/1655381078272.jpeg" style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px; border-style: none; position: relative; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; box-sizing: border-box;" ratio="1.78" width="550" fr-original-style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable">In a world that fills up at an uncomfortable pace and is visually confusing, according to Rams, the design's task is to be quiet, to aid the calm that allows people to come to themselves.<blockquote fr-original-style="color: rgb(9, 9, 9); border-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); border-width: 4px; font-style: italic; padding-left: 10px;" style="color: rgb(9, 9, 9); border-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); border-width: 4px; font-style: italic; padding-left: 10px; margin: 0px 0px 1em; border-left-style: solid; box-sizing: border-box;">"Inside my home, I can tune in to my emotions and sensitivity. I usually work at home - in a room that opens onto the garden, just like the living room. For me, working means thinking, reading, and talking more than designing. Design is first and foremost a thinking process."</blockquote>Rams' perspective is similar to traditional Japanese architecture. It's the aesthetics of an empty room with an open floor and a material combination of walls and ceiling. Rams was inspired by Japanese gardens in the design of his small garden. Rams liken the design of a garden to a room, a furniture system, or a household item.<img src="https://images.aposto.com/2022/5/4/1655381970130.jpeg" style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px; border-style: none; position: relative; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; box-sizing: border-box;" ratio="1.78" width="550" fr-original-style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable"><blockquote fr-original-style="color: rgb(9, 9, 9); border-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); border-width: 4px; font-style: italic; padding-left: 10px;" style="color: rgb(9, 9, 9); border-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); border-width: 4px; font-style: italic; padding-left: 10px; margin: 0px 0px 1em; border-left-style: solid; box-sizing: border-box;">"As a designer of technical products in the late twentieth century, it may seem surprising that I also draw inspiration from design cultures such as traditional Japanese architecture. But it would be even more surprising if there was nothing in the long history of design that inspired me or helped strengthen my beliefs. For me, the lack of historical interest is a weakness in many contemporary designers."</blockquote>

We have already mentioned the design principles of legendary designer Dieter Rams, who celebrated his 90th birthday last month. In this issue, we will talk about the application of Rams' principles to a living space, the designer's house.
