A Modular Icon

In 1954, Herbert Hirche designed a shelving system, defined by functional simplicity and precisely designed details.

Back then, the system was produced for some years by Christian Holzäpfel KG. 2019 Richard Lampert is re-introducing the shelf.

›Hirche DHS10‹ consists of tubular steel ›ladders‹, in which shelves, back panels or cabinet units are inserted. The individual components can be combined as desired, offering many different configurations and applications.

HERBERT HIRCHE

Herbert Hirche was one of Germany’s most prominent architects and designers in the 1950s and ‘60s. After completing an apprenticeship as a cabinetmaker, he studied at the Bauhaus in Dessau and in Berlin, where, among others, Kandinsky and Mies van der Rohe were his teachers.

After graduating, he worked in van der Rohe’s studio in Berlin. He also collaborated with Egon Eiermann and Hans Scharoun. In 1948, he was appointed Professor of Applied Arts at the Berlin Weissensee School of Art and, later, at the Stuttgart State Academy of Art and Design.

He was a member of the German Werkbund, of the Association of German Industrial Designers (VDI) and of the German Design Council (Rat für Formgebung).

Alongside his teaching, Hirche always worked as a freelance architect and designer, significantly shaping the development of product design in postwar Germany.

His work is defined by functionality and by harmonious proportions in the style of the Bauhaus teaching, which naturally blend with their environment.
