Reference: Goethe Institute Kyoto
Thanks to the careful renovation of the building erected in 1983 it was now transformed into a creative meeting place for scholarship holders from Germany and Japanese creative artists – the VILLA KAMOGAWA. The new café, the library, and the lobby are furnished with Thonet furniture. Models from the collection by Stefan Diez, tubular steel classics, and the outdoor program were chosen.

Exhibition "Furniture Design – Roentgen, Thonet and Modernism"
until September 4, 2011 at the Roentgen-Museum, Neuwied
Abraham Roentgen (1711-1793) was one of his epoch's most important furniture manufacturers. In 1750 he opened his manufactory in Neuwied. The history of our company began only a few kilometers away, in Boppard, when Michael Thonet founded his joinery in 1819 at the age of 23. It later developed into a globally operating company. The exhibition presents numerous originals from both manufacturers and their influence on the furniture history of modernism.

Note from the editor
Management: Peter Thonet and Karl-Heinz Gloe as a team
The experienced manager and corporate consultant Karl-Heinz Gloe has been accompanying our company on its way towards a comprehensive restructuring since the end of last year. Everything is going by plan and the restructuring will most likely be concluded by the end of June. We have also seen a positive development in revenues; in the first quarter 2011 we recorded a revenue increase of more than 10% compared with the previous year. Peter Thonet and Karl-Heinz Gloe will continue their joint management of the company's businesses until the end of 2012.
