Biography: the man before the myth<\/strong><\/p>\n

Peter Ippolito and Gunter Fleitz set up their own business straight after graduating. They had this idea to look at things not only from an architect\u2019s perspective. And they wanted to work in an interdisciplinary way. They initially set off down this path with two other partners. Then in 2002, the two of them founded Ippolito Fleitz Group. Their core business values remain the same today as they\u2019ve always been: an interdisciplinary approach, lateral thinking, admitting ideas, no matter how fantastic, being identity architects.<\/p>\n

\"BEST<\/a><\/p>\n

G.Fleitz\u2018s interest in art and art history began at an early age. He was fortunate to travel around Europe a lot as a child and teenager. The architectural treasures he saw on his travels made a lasting impression and were a formative influence on him. He eventually realized this is the path he want to pursue.<\/p>\n

While P. Ippolito tried out various things after graduating from high school. He worked as a wine merchant for a while and also on a construction site. Then practically overnight he decided to move to Paris, without really knowing what he wanted to do there. The freedom of not having to do something gave him time to explore the city for himself. He walked its streets, discovered its hidden places and drew what he saw. At some point he realized, he\u2018s going to be an architect.<\/p>\n

Backgroung & Realizations: the projects<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Most Iconic Projects<\/strong><\/p>\n

As the creators said the most identifying quality of the company is surprise. Surprise. They claim \u201cWe frequently succeed in creating surprising, memorable and yet precise images with a strong narrative power that are thought through to the tiniest detail and can be experienced as such.\u201d<\/p>\n

There are several iconic projects that could prove you they are not lying.<\/p>\n

First one \u2013 retail project Palace of International Forums<\/strong> in Uzbekistan. The Palace of International Forums stands on Amir Timur Square in the very centre of Tashkent. The country\u2019s most important representative building is designed as a platform for hosting acts of state, congresses, conferences and other cultural highlights.<\/p>\n

\"BEST
\nCompany\u2019s task was to give the interior a contemporary form, while incorporating elements from traditional Uzbek architecture. The result is a cosmopolitan, communicative interior clothed in exclusive materials. Planar ornamentation, organic movement, crystals, precious metals and a fascinating interplay of artificial and natural light all become a source of inspiration.<\/p>\n

\"BEST\"BEST<\/p>\n

Second one \u2013 hospitality project Der Spiegel canteen<\/strong>. In October 2011 the SPIEGEL Group, whose stable includes Germany\u2019s most important news magazine Der SPIEGEL, moved into its new publishing house in Hamburg\u2019s HafenCity development. This impressive structure on the Eriscusspitze, lapped by the waters of the River Elbe, was designed by Danish architect Henning Larsen. Ippolito Fleitz Group was commissioned to create a new employees\u2019 canteen for the building. The legacy building\u2019s famous canteen was designed in 1969 by Verner Panton and has since been placed under heritage protection. This inheritance represented a particular challenge.<\/p>\n

Third one \u2013 hospitality project Not Guilty<\/strong>. The Swiss restaurant chain \u201cnot guilty\u201d is the embodiment of honest and nutritious foods, imaginatively prepared into many different salads and snacks. The downtown Zurich location, opened in 2013, is now the 3rd location of the \u201cnot guilty\u201d expansion to have opened. In each of these flagship locales, the philosophy of a \u201clittle heaven on Earth\u201d is expressed in the store\u2019s interior, inspiring those within to delight in the \u00a0harmony of nature.<\/p>\n

\"BEST<\/p>\n

The long, open restaurant welcomes its guests with the familiar tones and textures of natural oak wood flooring combined with mixture of delicate white and pastel tones. The entrance focal point is the colorful salad bar, and a menu board designed like a kitchen hutch.<\/p>\n

\"BEST\"BEST\"BEST<\/p>\n

And the last, but not the least, hospitality project \u2013 Waku Waku Dammtor. <\/strong>WakuWaku has relaunched itself as a fast food restaurant and organic food store in one. The brand values \u2018organic\u2019 and \u2018sustainable\u2019 remain the clear focus of all communication.<\/p>\n

\"BEST<\/p>\n

The large, open fa\u00e7ade provides an unrestricted view of a space, which is almost entirely encased in solid wood panelling, creating the ideal stage to display the products in the WakuWaku world. One side wall with floor-to-ceiling shelving integrates both display compartments and glass-fronted refrigerators.<\/p>\n

\"BEST<\/p>\n

A long central counter and parallel niches provide seating spots for all communicative requirements. Different shapes of chair break up the seating landscape and hark back to the original WakuWaku outlet \u2013 as do the chair legs, dipped in the WakuWaku corporate colour. The untreated wood dominating the space is synonymous with the chain\u2019s ecological sustainability. The rough wooden surfaces contrast with the canopy of fine wire lamps and the intricate wall sketches created by Chris Rehberger using taut strings.<\/p>\n

Interesting facts of Peter Ippolito and IF Group<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ippolito thinks that his strongest skills is Courage and impartiality. He is not put off by: \u201cYou\u2019re not allowed to do it like that\u201d. He says that you dare to do things that may seem completely crazy on rational appraisal. Which is why the company sticks 50,000 letters onto the wall of an exhibition stand or sign a contract that obligates them to produce the complete interior for an Uzbek state palace in only 5 months. It\u2019s about giving credence to every thought and every idea. He also enjoy trying out new things all the time.<\/p>\n

\"BEST<\/p>\n

How company holds on\u00a0its creativity?<\/p>\n

They say you should keep your eyes open and look around yourself. Enter into discussion, admit other ways of thinking, be self-critical. The broad spectrum of their projects also keeps their curiosity keen and offers much scope for variety. This is why they also love working outside of Germany. It teaches them to deal with very different situations and to take other approaches on board. Working internationally also demands greater self-reflection in your dealings with the client and in your approach to the task in hand.<\/p>\n

Co-operations<\/strong><\/p>\n

And it\u2019s also designing new store concepts for spectacles manufacturer Bolon. These are all projects in which the group must first gain a really thorough understanding of the psychology of the local market. It is also working on a new shopping mall in Moscow, designing a global store concept for Swarovski, developing a large sports complex in Switzerland, supporting a new restaurant chain in Germany and working on various exciting residential projects.<\/p>\n

Talent is a heritage<\/strong><\/p>\n

Working with Daniel Libeskind made him realize that architecture contains implicit meaning(s) and it was there that he saw the absolute in their work. Ben Nicholson in Chicago taught him about the simultaneity of the sacred and profane; the gift of curiosity and being open to quite disparate positions and approaches, of developing something from this starting point and never forgetting to retain a sense of humour.<\/p>\n
