4 4 EN ROUTE TO UNIQUE NESS On the horizon: a vision. Creations come and go. Apart from one. One never seen before. One that evokes fascination. Creating something truly unique needs vision to pair with passion. And a willingness to go to great lengths without compromising. The goal? The profound satisfaction to have achieved something in this world better than anyone else. This we have in common with those who appreciate us.

5 5 09:42:19:38 CITY OF LONDON, PRIVATE MUSEUM First, what the mind s eye sees. The inspiring ideas. Then: the creation. The design process. Going the extra mile until the unique is created.

6 6 LUXURY FOR UNIQUE MASTER- PIECES FOR UNIQUE MOMENTS INDIVIDUALISTS I HAVE THE SIMPLEST TASTES. I AM ALWAYS SATISFIED WITH THE BEST. SAID OSCAR WILDE. INDIVIDUALISTS EXPRESS THEMSELVES THROUGH THE THINGS AROUND THEM. THE PRECIOUS LUXURY OF BEING ABLE TO CHOOSE THE BEST.

7 7 People who have achieved something follow a guiding principle: They are not satisfied with the average. They go to the limits and beyond. And express it in the ambience in which they live. In the exterior world of their interior world. In an ambience designed with self-confidence and characterised by striking features. The art of stylish room design often consists of a skilled combination of unmistakable elements of style. Works of art from centuries past in contrast with futuristic objects. Tradition meets avantgarde. The roots from which we live. And the visions we are heading towards. Our masterpieces draw inspiration from both sources. The craftsmanship of our ateliers and manufactory lend a physical form to stylishly confident design in refined materials, perfect handicraft and luxurious finish. The passion of our creators and engineers for innovative, amazing solutions becomes the cradle of inimitable innovation. Both together tradition and innovation lead to unique masterpieces. We do not follow role models - we set new standards. That is what the world of BUBEN&ZORWEG has in common with the people for whom we work. Who appreciate us and our way of thinking. To swim not with the tide, but rather to conquer the summit of the achievable.

9 9 AGARTOS Beyond function: purest beauty. The perfect flow of lines. The gracious play of light reflections on exquisite surfaces. A delight for every sense.

10 10 DESIGN DRIVING INNO VATION Design starts in the mind. Design is born of imagination. Becomes a movement of the hand. Sensuously flowing lines. Pen on paper. A scrutinizing gaze. The patience of many trials. Striving for perfection. Discussions; the courage to start again from scratch. Transforming into something never seen before. Approaching the valid form. And then certainty. That is it. The new masterpiece...

11 11 14:08:23:09 ÖLBRONN-DÜRRN. GERMANY One of many good ideas remains. The best one. It s now all about implementation. About focusing on perfection.

12 12 LUXURY A WAY INSPIRATION, A LIFELONG COMPANION OF LIFE LUXURY IS: A LOVE OF LIFE. AN UNCOMPROMISING YES TO THE VALUABLE. TO WHAT MAKES A PERSON AND THEIR AURA UNMISTAKABLE. THE PLEASURE OF ENJOYING THE EXQUISITE. A PASSION FOR BEAUTIFUL THINGS.

13 13 People who give luxury a befitting place in their lives care little for lifestyle. Lifestyle is a fad, short-lived and replaceable. Lifestyle comes off the conveyor belt. Luxury is hand-crafted by masters. Time is nearly always at the center of our masterpieces. Represented by fascinating mechanical watches from the best workshops in the world. People who love luxury are aware of the value of time. Aware of the wonderful hours spent alone or with friends, surrounded by beautiful, valuable things... moments of happiness. Luxury. The good feeling of knowing valuables are safeguarded. Kept in safes that are themselves an experience as refined designer objects. Heedfully surrounded by value-preserving high-tech. Innovative ideas, fascinating details, perfect realization. It is these visions that make our masterpieces so unique. The luxury of not having to compromise on realization. To touch the boundaries of what is feasible. The joy of creating something very special for very special people. For people who love luxury because they love life.

17 17 The master s hand gently tests the workpiece. Decades have taught him to trust the experience of his fingertips. Every deviation, no matter how small, is noticed. The soul of the material becomes tangible. In these first phases of creation. And later, when the proud owner treasures the unique aura of the masterpiece. Made in Germany means perfection without coldness. Living from the passion with which our master craftsmen dedicate themselves to their trade.
