Studio

Altherr/Weiss — an interdisciplinary studio in Zurich.

Founded in 2017 by Christian Altherr and Zuzanna Weiss, the studio works between object design, sculpture and installation. Its pieces are known for distinct sculptural forms and expressive narratives, made through a site-specific, resourceful approach: the material and the place usually set the brief. Tilt is that method applied to an everyday object — a question about public fountains answered as one continuous form in steel.
