FurnSpin gets German Design Award 2025

Turning swivelling fitting marks a milestone in Furniture design

Hettich's innovative FurnSpin turning swivelling fitting attracts one award after another. Now it's the German Design Award 2025 too. Because the innovative fitting technology forms the basis for design concepts, the likes of which have not been seen before: FurnSpin lets furniture turn inside out.

Giving it the German Design Award 2025, the "German Design Council" acknowledges the completely new ground this fitting technology is breaking. FurnSpin's unique translatory rotational movement redefines interior design, merging two pieces of furniture into one: open shelf unit and closed front. Following the interzum Award "best of the best“ 2023, the Red Dot Design Award 2024 and Japan's Good Design Award 2024, this is now the fourth accolade Hettich is receiving for the innovative fitting.

Potential to go a new way
Hettich's product family of turning swivelling fittings is indeed defining a new fittings category in its own right. This fact alone implies huge potential for designing furniture and furnishing systems. The dynamic spin, with its perfectly balanced movement cycle, offers much more than changing a design from open to closed and back again. It permits a transformation of use options and storage spaces on the furniture itself, yet equally too for a room's design. Rotating furniture elements can be used to bring multifunctionality and better efficiency to a space. Whether in the kitchen, living room, bathroom or office – FurnSpin "designed in Germany" inspires designers, contractor fitters, architects and furniture manufacturers to rethink furniture and interior design.
