“There are good people. There are bad people. Crafelled people.” Frame -rich quotes can be seen in the influential hallway of the Munich apartment of Verena Holthas. If you are not familiar German Geography is a city in Crafeld Northern Rhine-Westphalia, from where creative advisors and entrepreneurs become Jai, although he has now lived in Munich’s lively Ludvigswsvorstad-Isarvorstead neighborhood for nearly nine years.
Among the residents of Munich, Holthas is known for his company Salon C/OThe city’s famous AnglCher is not located away from Garton.

Holthas invited Advertisement Germany To sit on one of his tables for this interview. The aroma of drinking tea filled the air because we were sitting under a red and white striped canopy, while the tender winter sun made a fascinating drama of light on silver and glass material. This is an ideal atmosphere to discuss his apartments, salon C/O, and young artists.
Advertisement: Verena, you dedicate yourself to tableware in salon C/O, run a store, and organize various programs. Today we are sitting on this artistic table. Can you please explain your concept in more detail?
Verena Holthas: It is not easy for me to keep it in a sentence. Finally, for me it is about a contemporary interpretation of the culture of gathering around a table. It is about creating a place in Munich – or anywhere, for the case – where people can come together, be inspired, and perhaps leave with new ideas. I get it through the following three pillars: concept, community and interaction. I have both stores, which acts as a physical place where I sell and lend, and then focus on art and culture with my events, which I also make for customers. There is also a series of events such as gabelfrühstück (or second breakfast, a traditional food in Bavaria between breakfast and lunch), designed to bring people together and motivate them. It is very important for me that it is not only about superficial objects, but also about the stories behind them. I always try to take the history of things that I use in my settings: is the duration or style a special object? Where does the design come from? What was the inspiration? It is about seeing these beautiful old things again in a modern context. I have history in many items, while they are also items you want to continue to use.
How did you end with this unique career?
I studied fashion and design management in Daseldorf and really always wanted to work in fashion. Even as a child, I was often sketching. My father was a photographer who had done a lot of fashion work and he used to take me to shoot sometimes. I had a clear way in my mind and worked for stylist Karin van Norte when I was in school. She still affects my work and teaches me how to work with things. After the university, a job with fashion label Mark O’Polo took me to Bavaria, first Rosenhem and then near Munich. But I always wanted to start my own business, so I decided to get an MBA in innovation and business in Technical University, Munich. At the same time, I started my own business. Then, thanks to a friend, I went into consultation – it was completely different.
