➊ designer Harry thaler<br />

Product designer Harry Thaler was born<br />

in Meran/<strong>Merano</strong> in 1975, has lived in<br />

London since 2008 but still manages to<br />

divide his time between the design capital<br />

of the world and his home town. After<br />

completing his apprenticeship as a goldsmith,<br />

he started studying at the Faculty<br />

of Design and Art at the Free University<br />

of Bozen/Bolzano, but he dropped out<br />

to move to London where he studied<br />

Product Design at the royal College of<br />

Art. He completed the program in 2010.<br />

Harry Thaler’s works can be admired internationally<br />

in various exhibits and in<br />

his home town at the Pur Südtirol market<br />

in Corso della Libertà where he did the<br />

interior design and in Bolzano at the Living<br />

Kampill temporary apartment where<br />

he puts a modern spin on the traditional<br />

Stube, typically a classic example of an<br />

alpine farming environment. You can<br />

also find his work in the Casa Atelier, a<br />

workshop for artists and curators that<br />

was designed from one of his ideas and<br />

at the Museion, the museum for modern<br />

and contemporary art in Bolzano.
