#AARDE

On his honeymoon in South Africa, German designer Sebastian Herkner was captivated by the diverse elements, textures, and tones he encountered, which continue to inspire his work ‘Aarde,’ meaning ‘earth,’ symbolises the cultural, demographic, and natural layers, as well as the unique light of Africa
