Drebes & Oertel Drebes & Oertel works at the intersection of product and interior design. From ideation to realization, we offer everything to create smart user experiences and sustainable innovations for you and your customers.
As a studio for product and interior design, we extend the portfolios of our clients or innovate them fundamentally. Our claim is sustainability, in the sense of a balance between production effort, useful life and the best possible user experience.
In the fields of product and industrial design, we create mass produced products that meet the challenges of our increasingly complex world. By using an intelligent design language, we produce resilient solutions that stand out and communicate your values.
In the field of interior design, we are specialized in the design of working environments. It is our goal not only to meet the requirements of a contemporary work culture, but also to develop it in a way that is fit for the future. We support companies conceptually and in terms of planning in order to successfully master the change towards the "new work".

Process
How We Work
Introduction - Getting to Know
Where projects start, people meet. We want to get to know you, your brand and your products or services. Together, we record the key data of the design task, determine the procedure and time frame, and create the basis for a successful, cooperative partnership.
Discover - Research & Analysis
The start of a project is marked by research and project environment analysis. Target group, user behavior, as well as trend and competitor analysis help us to understand your project and its context. This enables us to provide you with ideal advice on design strategy and to develop innovative solutions.
Define - Concept & Planning
Based on our analysis, we define visions and scenarios for your project in line with your corporate values and goals to make them tangible. This translation process includes the conception of design strategies and results in an intelligent design language with which you identify.
Design - Sketching & Detailing
Driven by your visions and goals, we implement the concepts creatively. We combine form, color and material to create an aesthetic that conveys and reinforces your idea. Whether it is a serial product or an interior design solution, in the end it is the details that make the result functional, economical and sustainable.
Deliver - Realization & Handover
Data creation and transfer, production and/or inspection of prototypes are part of our range of services. As well as the support of pilot series for products, construction realization in space, quality control and inspection services in general. We are also happy to advise you on communication strategy and art direction.
