Seitz

Seitz is a Swiss furniture design studio founded in 2019 by Kevin Seitz and Rob van Wyen, working between a studio and showroom in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, and a workshop in Muotathal, Switzerland. Kevin Seitz grew up in Berneck, where five generations of Swiss makers preceded him, surrounded by locally made pieces dating back to the 1800s.

The two met in New York in 2013, bringing different disciplines to the studio: Kevin through product and industrial design, Rob through graphic design, creative direction and storytelling. Seitz develops furniture with specialist makers, reading regional typologies, architectural details and the ingenuity of the everyday for new relevance, with pieces such as the Appenzeller dining table and sideboard and the Chalet bench.
