Dessí’s approach is practical and cooperative, design is understood as an interactive process. Selfinitiated projects serve to experiment with materials and challenge processes that are later applied to commercial projects or further developed for industrial or craft reproduction processes. In the case of commissioned work, the design work is always preceded by an accurate examination of the companies, the respective production methods and their inherent potential. The studio is not fixed on a specific style, preferred materials or a uniform formula, but rather regards design as a craft in which a deep understanding of materials, processes and their interrelationships form design parameters. In the uncompromising combination of function, construction and aesthetics, the quest for the perfect design object is fulfilled; the logic of assembly and disassembly, the precise relations of form and dimension are just as relevant as intelligent material combinations and sophisticated detailed concepts.
