WE INVITED HAUS OTTO TO CONTRIBUTE TO THE JETZT. AND WE ARE GLAD WE DID!
Shane Schneck was born in Chicago and studied architecture at Miami University. In 1999 he worked for Piero Lissoni as a product designer in Milan.

The Jetzt
Shane Schneck contributed to the collection with a wooden chair – Easel.
Smallness is not often analogous to comfort, despite the seat’s reduced proportions the angle and position make it remarkably comfortable for the curiously small footprint. When in use the seat becomes invisible support for the seated hence the name Easel. The base is constructed with half-lap joints in solid oak and offers a stable feel despite its dimensions.

The Jetzt
Calen Knauf contributed to the collection with two pairs of side tables – Sponge and Vent.t
Sponge
Assuming the weight and texture of an object to later find out its nothing like what you expected is a surprising and pleasant occurrence. The Sponge Tables hope to achieve this for its observers. Made from carbonated aluminum panel, a common building material, once painted be-comes completely unrecognizable as metal. The sponge table’s simple construction is intended to highlight the use of material, extenuating the alchemist quality of elevating a standard building material to a luxury good.
