"SUCUX" Gallery and Office Berlin, Shōji folding doors, W380 x H300 x D7 cm, HYALIN - Office Tables, W340 x H120 x D73 cm, INFINITY - Mirrors, W380 x H150 x D0,6cm, GRILLS - Seating Elements, W240 x H60 x D40 cm. The multifunctional space combines a working area with a gallery, effectively divided by modern interpretations of traditional shoji-style folding doors. These doors provide privacy and enhance acoustics, ensuring meetings can proceed without disturbances.
Large tables offer ample workspace while concealing computer cables within their structure, maintaining the gallery's clean appearance.
Two mirrors are strategically positioned facing each other, creating an infinity reflection that amplifies the room's sense of space. This optical illusion produces a series of diminishing reflections, giving the impression of endless depth.
Custom-built installations cover heaters and provide seating between the gallery's arched windows.
All installations are constructed and handcrafted by Reidar Mester using solid aluminum, chosen for its durability and recyclability, contributing to the space's sustainability. The tabletops and shoji door panels are crafted from eco-friendly, satin-finished acrylic offering a sleek finish while being environmentally responsible. Notably, all structures are assembled without welding, utilizing irreversible connections to enhance sustainability.
This design approach creates an environment that balances functionality with visual appeal, all while adhering to sustainable practices. Every new element has been meticulously designed to preserve the existing architecture.... READ MORE

INFINITE - Clothes Rail, Aluminium, W550 x H20 x D30 cm, 217“ x 8“ x 12“, 2024. At first glance, the rail may seem like a playful exaggeration, but it draws inspiration from profound ideas. Just as mathematicians manipulate infinite sets to solve problems like Fermat’s Last Theorem, delving into structures as vast as Grothendieck universes. This rail invites us to consider what it means to have access to an infinite wardrobe. Would every style, size, and fabric be represented? Would patterns repeat, as the universe might in an infinite cosmos? Or would it offer infinite novelty, a garment for every whim or occasion?
In a way, the Infinite Clothing Rail mirrors questions in physics and cosmology. Is the universe infinite, stretching forever like this rail? If so, does it repeat itself, or is each section unique? As with the cosmos, the rail invites awe and curiosity, a reminder that infinity is as much about imagination as it is about numbers and stars.
From a practical standpoint, such a rail challenges our sense of order. In an infinite wardrobe, where does one begin to choose? Just as physicists grapple with infinities in quantum fields and cosmology, we might struggle to navigate the endless options before us.
The Infinite Clothing Rail isn’t just a metaphor it’s a call to ponder our relationship with abundance, choice, and the unknown. Perhaps infinity isn’t about having everything, but about appreciating the infinite possibilities within the finite. After all, even the longest rail begins with a single hanger.... READ MORE
REIDAR MESTER is an architect and product designer based in Berlin, Germany. With a background in architecture and a strong respect for craftsmanship, he designs and builds his work by hand, combining traditional techniques with contemporary production methods.
For Mester, building is an essential part of the design process. Working directly with materials helps him understand how they behave, how they come together, and how to design with them in a way that feels natural and precise. This hands on involvement shapes both the structure and appearance of his work.
He pays close attention to how elements connect, seeing the choice of joints as a fundamental part of the design. By combining materials such as aluminum with acrylic or stainless steel with leather, he creates pieces that are both functional and visually engaging, shaped by a clear understanding of their use and context. Through ongoing experimentation and a direct engagement with materials, Mester creates balanced compositions that highlight the individual qualities of each component.
His aim is to develop practical and thoughtful solutions that support everyday life and respond to real human needs.

Material Disclaimer
Aluminium
Each piece is unique, with natural scratches and irregularities in the aluminium. Over time, it develops a patina with marks and a tinted finish. Suitable for indoor and outdoor use, it won’t rust or deteriorate. Wet items may leave marks. Daily cleaning can be done with a soft cloth dampened with clean water or a very mild soap/detergent.
Avoid using chemical cleaners on the furniture. After cleaning, rinse the aluminium thoroughly and dry it with a soft cloth to prevent streaks and scratches.
Acrylic
Acrylic scratches easily and may already show some minor scratches upon delivery. Never place hot pots or pans directly on the surface; always use a trivet or table mat for protection. The surface can be cleaned with mild soap and a soft cloth. Exposure to sunlight may cause discoloration.
The material can be cleaned daily with a soft cloth and clean water. Avoid ammonia-based or abrasive chemical cleaners.
Stainless Steel
Each piece is unique, with minor scratches or irregularities due to the nature of stainless steel. Over time, it develops a patina, with marks adding to its character. Only select stainless steel furniture is suitable for outdoor use—please consult us first. Wet items may leave marks.
For regular cleaning of stainless steel, pH-neutral soap and water are adequate when applied with a sponge or cloth. Wipe and dry the surface afterwards.
