Zeitraums designs are a tribute to the pure, the purity of the material and the durability of the form. Out of conviction they are committed to acting sustainably and feel obligated to the principle of making products that can be repaired as this is the only way to ensure their longevity over generations. Repair and maintenance deepen the relationship between the person and the product.
