...With the desire for beauty in daily life: "I like to challenge perception with my designs. I like the users of the products I created to feel seen and heard and to experience a loving relationship with the items. Being left-handed gave me the opportunity to rethink things, especially in fields where I felt, well, left out!

Things designed for right-handed people collide with the natural flow of movement for left-handed people and we have changed that. So, at BREUL design it is all about ease and flow.

A sense of beauty is such an inherent part of being human and for me it means that a thing is beautiful through-and-through, from its form to its workmanship."

Susanne Breul

My grandad was a shoemaker and grandma a seamstress, left-handed as well. Both had a modern approach to life in their teamwork, work-life-balance and their love and respect for craftsmanship. In my grandparents' workshop, my judgement for select materials and fine finish developed. The smell of leather, the sound of the treadle in Grandad's shop meant beauty and quality.

One look at our growing collection reveals the fondness for aesthetic simplicity:

"An object that is well-designed and well-made throughout communicates an ease. There was enough time for the object to fully mature. Omitting the superfluous and designing in harmony with the materials leads to a product in the end, that radiates ease and conveys a certain quiet joy in the hand. The result: smooth flow. Nothing interrupts the elegance of movement.
