My name is Caspar Viereckel and I´m the founder of tetraplan. My dedication on functional design and the process of invention has led me to study architecture, while my urge always was to build myself. Combining brains, hands, tools and materials towards something new and good is my ultimate goal and drive.

I like things that make sense and work. If they are affordable and efficient – even better. My projects always focus on squeezing the maximum (enjoyment, functionality, beauty) out of the minimum (space, money, time).

This philosophy doesn´t mean I am all-work-and-no-play only. I just rather see luxury in a view over the valley through some large and well positioned windows than in the most complex (and utterly useless, while costly) roof structure in the neighborhood!

 

One basic rule, that I adopted from one of my mentors, is: Saving space means saving money means having more money to go traveling, skiing or whatever means something to you. Basic living can be living large.
