ATELIER EDITION 2022 - VERNISSAGE AT STUDIO 1763

The limited Atelier Edition 2022 is the result of reissuing, adapting and further developing some of the treasures in the KPM archive. KPM vase classics from different stylistic periods serve as the formal stage. These works can be seen in the new Studio 1763 in the KPM Berlin Pavilion on Kurfürstendamm.

ATRIUM floor vase (limited to 10 pieces) and LÖBERSCHALE (limited to 25 pieces), both block stripes
Vase ZWIEBELFORM Meander (limited to 25 pieces)

The decors of the Atelier Edition 2022 were created in the decor department of KPM Berlin. This special painting discipline is one of four areas of work (the others are flower painting, landscape painting and figural staffage) and is primarily concerned with graphic painting decors.

Set of BILDPLATE and CYLINDRICAL VASE CONTOUR (limited to 10 pieces)

CONTOUR

The white porcelain contrasts with rich black, cool gray and gray-blue. Designer and master painter Solveig Uehr deliberately plays with the brush and its structure to create subtle color nuances that enliven the decor.

Vase HALLE 1 (limited to 100 pieces), vase HALLE 2 (limited to 75 pieces), vase HALLE 3 (limited to 50 pieces), all three BÄNDER

BANDS

The BÄNDER decor was inspired by Ernst Böhm from 1928. In typical style, Böhm developed the matching decor for a square vase (also designed by him). For the Atelier Edition 2022, this was then adapted to Friedlaender's HALLE vase in new color variations.

CHINESE FLOOR VASE (limited to 15 pieces) MÄANDER

MÄANDER

The inspiration for the MÄANDER pattern was the BLOCKSTREIFEN pattern designed by Luise-Charlotte Koch in 1955. KPM head designer Thomas Wenzel, designer Sarah Bräuner and master painter Astrid Schulz developed the color scheme further and dynamically adapted the vertical color fonds to the objects.

LÖBERSCHALE (limited to 25 pieces) BLOCKSTREIFEN

BLOCK STRIPS

Luise-Charlotte Koch studied commercial and fashion graphics. At the age of 29, she was promoted to artistic collaborator for design work together with her friend and colleague Sigrid von Unruh. She developed the BLOCKSTREIFEN pattern in 1955 for a private commission.

Floor vase KRUKENFORM PALETTE 1956 blue (limited to 25 pieces)
Floor vase KRUKENFORM PALETTE 2022 Purple (limited to 25 pieces)

PALETTE 1956/2022

Painting palettes, indicated by gold contouring, are spread across the entire body of the vase and filled with different colored monochrome brushstrokes. The title PALETTE 1956 refers to the color palette once chosen by Luise-Charlotte Koch, consisting of neutral earth tones and bright primary colors in blue.
