I prefer to design products in a convenient but natural way. Any product that I design must be stylish, chic, and timeless, yet refreshingly idiosyncratic. These are products that combine function with a surprising twist. According to my design philosophy, door fittings must both look good and have a comfortable grip. But most importantly, the design should be in perfect harmony with the building’s architecture. In collaboration with Formani I've designed the TENSE collection.  

The unique characteristics of the design received an honorable mention during the German Design Awards, one of the most prestigious design contests. TENSE by Bertram Beerbaum is a total concept collection including door, window, and furniture fittings and is available in the colours stainless steel, satin black, and bronze.
