Daniel Heilig is a free spirit, interior designer, founder and owner of the HEILIG OBJECTS brand. He manufactures his furniture by hand in his own workshop in Germany. The self-taught designer is supported by an excellent team of design students who develop their own creative potential and non-conformist ways of thinking with him.

Design is in me. I am a visionary free spirit, driven by inexhaustible creative energy and a boundless creative urge. I'm not interested in what design is allowed to do. I believe in good design. It fills living spaces with soul, aesthetics and its own history. Qualities that I miss in German furniture design. I fill the vacuum with authentic design language and non-conformist, sensitive designs that often blur the boundary between furniture design and commercial art.

My fascination for iconic architecture flows into my current collection called MONUMENTS. As a self-taught designer, I feel close to architecture autodidacts such as Tadao Ando or Carlo Scarpa. MONUMENTS stands for signed unique pieces, small series, limited editions and collectible pieces with soul, aesthetic poetry and authentic history. Created for the lifestyle and mindset of modern nomads and individualists who love contemplative design oases, minimalist everyday furniture and atmospheric interior design.
