The work of Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Axel Thallemer consistently crosses the borders between traditional disciplines – one reason why he was invited to contribute to this “Multidisplinary Approach”. In 1994 he was founder and head of Festo Corporate Design and created, amongst other beautiful products, “Airtecture” – pneumatic lightweight constructions that made him well known amongst architects. His works are inspired by nature and are, in many cases, strongly related to architecture. Since 2004, Prof. Axel Thallemer is Dean of Industrial Design at Kunstuniversität Linz, Austria.
