GRACE by Sebastian Herkner, Text: Nina Prehofer
Create that holiday feeling without even leaving your home.
Just one classic daiquiri with delicious rum and you’ll be feeling like Hemingway in Cuba. The serving trolley was created for Schönbuch by the Maison & Objet Designer of the Year, Sebastian Herkner. “Grace” is true to its name, in a minimalist design inspired by the architecture of the 1950s.
Cin cin!
