Page 1:RIMAPRODUCT BOOKDesign approach‘Tangible User Interface‘ describes a sensible interface between analogue operation anddigital effects. This approach both fascinates and inspires Matthias Pinkert, the chief prod-uct designer at dreipuls GmbH. He completed his apprenticeship in cabinetmaking in hishome town of Dresden at the ‘Deutsche Werkstätten Hellerau’, a company that has gainedfame around the world for its sophisticated, unique interior decorating designs. Over thecourse of a decade with this employer, he developed extraordinary powers of creativityand an eye for irresistible perfection in design. After his master’s examinations, he studiedproduct design at Dresden University of Applied Sciences. Even before graduating fromuniversity, he attracted attention with some of his initial designs for intuitive products. His in-novative lighting concept combining state-ofthe-art lamps with elegantly reduced designsilhouettes earned Matthias Pinkert the Red Dot Design Award in 2010. His fascination withthe surprisingly logical approach towards using light has triggered a highly contagiousenthusiasm for such products.What is intuition? Instantaneous comprehension probably describes it best. Sensed knowl-edge; when experience suggests an action that instantly proves to be correct. Trained byeveryday situations, our minds follow an internal logical system that recommends a likelysolution. People act analogically. What if the behaviour of digital lighting technology re-sponded to our analogue way of thinking?
