happy 90th birthday to dieter rams

fritz frenkler and all f/p design teams wish dieter rams a happy birthday. 

after so many years of friendship and collaboration, we have the utmost respect for dieter rams. the teachings and works of one of the greatest industrial designers in germany and the whole world influenced our own design philosophy. “good design is as little design as possible”. one of the 10 principles of good design by dieter rams links directly to fritz frenkler’s ideas of reduction, minimalism and sustainability and finds reflection in f/p design works.  

we are grateful to take inspiration from dieter rams’s legacy and wish him a healthy and happy life ahead.
