HAMMER are Sereina Rothenberger and David Schatz. The two designers have been working together since 2008. Rothenberger, who teaches at Karlsruhe University of Art and Design, grew up on the Ivory Coast and moved to Switzerland at the age of 9. David Schatz, born in Bayreuth, studied at the Zurich University of the Arts. The duo answered our questions with three amusing sketches.

Which priorities and / or concerns do you currently face in your practice and how do you face them?  In other words – which critical questions keep bouncing back within your work / projects?

“Doubt, Delight and Change!” – was a claim by Cedric and visionary architect best-known for buildings which never saw the light of day – but who was one of the most influential and visionary architects of the late-twentieth century. What is your claim and why? And what we really want to know from you is: What is your most treasured possession?
