Never forget how to light a fire!

We are all confronted with an increasingly complex and digital everyday life, especially in the last twelve months when working from home became the norm overnight. But once again, and perhaps more impressively than ever before, this time has shown us how digitalisation fuels the longing for a balance – for something real, tactile, natural, enduring and heart-warming. First and foremost, this is the longing for a beautiful and carefree time with our loved ones. And no matter where we satisfy this longing these days, in our closest relationships at home or outside in the garden and in nature - these times are even more intense, cosier and quite simply much more beautiful with fire. That is exactly what drives us every day and what we have been burning for since we started in 2015: We want put the fire back into your life.

You and your best friends gathered around a crackling fire. Is there anything more beautiful than that? These unforgettable fire stories are our answer to the question “why?”. It is why höfats conceives, invents, optimises and produces beautiful, innovative and unique products. Our range includes table flames, fire baskets, fire bowls, barbecues, lanterns, torches and in the future will also include many other products that will make your time by the fire the best time of your life.

höfats DNA

Our founders and managing directors Thomas and Christian met and became friends during their mechanical engineering studies and subsequently studied product design together in Berlin. So they are both engineers and designers at the same time. They combine these disciplines together as product developers. The combination of form and function, of art and technology, is therefore at the nucleus and head of höfats and our unmistakable DNA. WirtschaftsWoche ran an article about höfats entitled “Functional design meets attention to detail”. höfats’ products combine unique design with inspiring functionality and claim to be the best of their kind. We have always remained true to this DNA since our founding in 2015, which has been rewarded many times over: In the last five years, höfats has been awarded far more than 50 design prizes. 

There is considerable potential in the direct interweaving of the disciplines of design and engineering, as history also teaches us. In the “Role Models” section, we look at people, biographies and teams who, like höfats, stand for the combination of technology and aesthetics – we take a look at our heroes. They are our inspiration and motivation to stay true to our DNA and spur us on to perform with excellence day after day.
