ENERGETIX Bingen’s head of jewellery design Janine Eisenhauer invited the members of her international jewellery designer team to collect ideas together and develop new concepts. So they all got together on 29–30 November 2012 for an inspiring meeting in the company’s offices in Bingen am Rhein.
In addition to Marcella Ferretti and Britta Rejek who work in Bingen, Janine Eisenhauer’s team includes three ‚external‘ jewellery designers working in other places: Silke Prottung, Johanna Spath, Johannes Tsopanides and Robin Ashby from the UK. ENERGETIX art director Jörg Olejnik joined them to get an impression of the new collection for his graphics work on the catalogue.
The meeting focused on developing fresh ideas for future ENERGETIX collections and identifying new themes that will then be fleshed out by the jewellery designers.
Quo vadis?
The course was set for future creations during these days in Bingen. But what stylistic directions will the red ENERGETIX frog take next season?
We cannot reveal too much at this point, of course – all we can say is that the programme includes further development of existing categories, improvement of the jewellery systems and satisfaction of distributors‘ wishes.
From minimalist to glamorous, from symbolic to delicate and romantically playful — the spectrum of themes devised for the 2013/2014 collection is very varied. As well as good luck symbols, large stones and nature motifs, other funny monsters and new materials are planned. One thing is certain: it will be a colourful collection!
It will be interesting to see what imaginative creations Janine Eisenhauer’s highly motivated design team will surprise us with in the future.
