"Martin Mostböck revs things up. Martin Mostböck is someone who has an uncanny way of transferring his own personal nature to his work, without even trying. There is a direct connection between the man’s spiritedness and the objects he produces. His design projects precisely convey an adoration for irony and a knack for cleverly upsetting the applecart, without losing control or venturing into frivolity. From chairs to plant pots to buildings, the designer offers an ingenious take on the details that matter, with a potent result. Unlike most, he delights in contrasts of scale and type of product, dancing between differences like there is no tomorrow."
