Marking the second issue of the magazine, «Modernists» and Goethe–Institute Riga invite to Richard Lampert’s lecture «When Then is Now» on modernism classics and new furniture design and manufacture on October 15.
The lecture is suited for designers, architects, craftsmen, manufacturers, students and researchers interested in:

- manufacturing of modernism icons nowadays — copyrights, licences, technologies;
- collaboration between manufacturers and new designers;

Richard Lampert established his enterprise in 1993 in Stuttgart and in the twenty years of his work has created a striking collaboration model between the designer and the manufacturer with a captivating product portfolio containing the most prominent German modernism masters as well as names from the younger generation of designers.

While appreciating the classics, the manufacturer works with young designers as well, among those are Parisian Arik Levy, London based designers «Doshi Levien», Bertjan Pot from the Netherlands, and several German designers.
