For an incredible 46 years, Kurt Strub has been an integral part of our company. Since joining on April 2, 1979, he has worked alongside three generations of the Röthlisberger family.

What started as a traditional carpentry career soon developed into a key role in the production, development, and design of the Röthlisberger Kollektion. His expertise in wood and leather has contributed to many of the collection’s most iconic pieces.

But Kurt’s impact goes far beyond his craftsmanship. Over the years, we have shared countless memories. Fortunately, he is not leaving us entirely. He will continue to support us two days a week, lending his expertise in calculations and remaining a valued colleague.

We thank him for his decades of dedication, loyalty, and friendship and look forward to many more moments together.

On Friday, our Chairman Peter Röthlisberger will be honored by the Swiss Association of Interior Architects (VSI.ASAI) as a distinguished personality for his dedication and commitment to Swiss interior design.

On 25th Augut the official handover of the family business on to the next generation was celebrated under the heading “Rövolution”, as well as the  40th anniversary of Röthlisberger Kollektion.

Over 70 exhibited pieces of design furniture from the last 40 years impressively demonstrated Röthlisberger’s standards of design and quality, which have been a part of their work for decades. The prestigious design office atelier oï developed a scenography and various installations especially for the event, which led through the various production halls, drawing together the indoor and outdoor areas. They revealed their full potential after dark, creating an inspiring mood through the interplay of light, material and movement.

The evening was finally rounded off by entertaining slam poetry, various performances, live music, exciting conversations and lots of food and drinks.

New York – Röthlisberger announced today plans to expand operations to the West Coast, establishing an office in Greater Seattle in response to the booming Pacific Northwest design market and customer demands for high-end custom interiors throughout Washington and California.

Röthlisberger, comprehensive supplier of luxury interiors renowned for its work with some of the world’s most prestigious architects, is expected to open its first West Coast office on the Kitsap Peninsula in Spring 2017.

Röthlisberger Seattle will boost the company’s ability to deliver on the planning, production and installation of complex custom interior engineering projects, ranging from private residences to luxury retail spaces, high-end commercial buildings, private jets and luxury yachts. In addition to custom interiors and millwork, the company also produces its own range of designer furniture. The Seattle office is expected to specialize in consulting services for architects and owner representatives.

Mark Röthlisberger, Director of Operations said:

“From Switzerland to London, NYC to Tokyo, Röthlisberger is a trusted partner to clients and architects around the globe, including Foster + Partners, John Pawson and Peter Marino Architect. Each custom project is a testament to the finest in Swiss quality and our commitment to delivering engineering that supports beautiful, one-of-a-kind design.

Röthlisberger’s expansion to the West Coast will enable us to better serve clients in the Seattle and San Francisco areas specifically—clients who are looking for exceptional quality and service and have exacting expectations around innovation, design and environmental sustainability.”

Headquartered in Switzerland, Röthlisberger is a fourth generation family business. The company has earned a worldwide reputation for using the latest technology and materials to deliver custom interior solutions that others have deemed ‘impossible’. Röthlisberger Seattle will mark the company’s second location in the United States, following Röthlisberger NYC.

The Seattle office is slated to be led by Marcel Imbach, a six year veteran of Röthlisberger and Managing Director of Röthlisberger NYC. Imbach’s role in NYC will be replaced by Alan Bodmer as of May 2017.

Sustainability is key for Röthlisberger! Having completed the heating of the entire production facility and offices on the company premises with pellets made from production waste, we have now invested in a large photovoltaic system. From March onwards, the company’s entire power consumption requirements will be met by solar panels and the electricity that these generate. This is a further commitment to the production location that is Switzerland and to sustainable operational management. More information is given under “Our values”.
