One could perhaps describe the team's formula for success as "variety within unity", and this has been borne out by the design studio they opened in 2009. Interior architect and designer Peter Maly, recipient of many prizes, established his own design office back in 1979. He designs international furniture collections, and his creations for Ligne Roset are generally acknowledged to be modern classics. Exhibition architecture, showrooms and shop concepts are also part of Peter Maly's creative spectrum. His links with designers Birgit Hoffmann and Christoph Kahleyss are of long standing: together they have realised numerous interior design projects. Core competences of the Maly Hoffmann Kahleyss studio are furniture design and interiors; they also undertake photo productions and exhibition design work.
