e15

Germany (1995)

e15 is a premium German furni­ture brand cele­brated for its progres­sive design, excep­tional crafts­man­ship, and sustain­able produc­tion. Founded in 1995 by archi­tect Philipp Mainzer and now led along­side designer Farah Ebrahimi, e15 merges archi­tec­ture, design, and art into a singu­lar, enduring vision.

Named after its orig­i­nal London post­code, e15 gained recog­ni­tion with its radical, mini­mal­ist furni­ture in solid wood — most notably the BIGFOOT™ table and BACKEN­ZAHN™ stool — hall­marks of a new era in contem­po­rary furni­ture design. The brand cham­pi­ons honest mate­ri­als, mono-mate­r­ial construc­tion, and natural finishes, often using sustain­ably sourced oak and other high-quality mate­ri­als like marble, leather, and metal.

With a Frank­furt-based team and a network of trusted Euro­pean crafts­men, e15 ensures regional produc­tion, reduc­ing envi­ron­men­tal impact while main­tain­ing excep­tional quality. Their philos­o­phy embraces time­less design, circu­lar economy prin­ci­ples, and authen­tic­ity — every piece is indi­vid­u­ally numbered and accom­pa­nied by a certifi­cate of origin.

e15 collab­o­rates with leading archi­tects and design­ers includ­ing David Chip­per­field, Stefan Diez, and David Thul­strup, and reis­sues modernist clas­sics by Ferdi­nand Kramer and Richard Herre. Their pieces are featured in museum collec­tions and have earned inter­na­tional design accolades.

Through its main collec­tion and the arti­sanal E15 SELECTED line, the brand contin­ues to set a global stan­dard in contem­po­rary, sustain­able furni­ture design for both resi­den­tial and commercial spaces.
