TSATSAS opened its new atelier and very first store in November 2015 in Frankfurt/Main. Boasting 100 square meters of floor space the rooms bring together sales area, showroom, model workshop and office facilities of the brand in a single location.
TSATSAS founders and owners Esther and Dimitrios Tsatsas themselves masterminded the Atelier’s concept and design. For their new space they completely gutted the building’s ground floor and designed interventions that carefully visually structure the space in different functional zones. The basic philosophy was not to place the rooms in competition with the products showcased in them, but to lend each individual zone its very own, unmistakable design feel. Simple materials such as plywood panels and industrial shelving were put to extraordinary use and finished with utmost precision, thereby forging a link to TSATSAS’ handcrafted fine leather goods.
Countless design icons have been given pride of place in the Atelier, including objects by Konstantin Grcic, Michael Anastassiades, Paolo Rizzatto or Le Corbusier, and by manufacturers such as Classicon, Nya Nordiska, Flos, Magis, Mattiazzi, Cassina and Plank.
