Maximising the value of space. Together.
Hafele’s history is a story of consistent movement from furniture to the door into the room. Our path has led from functionality to atmosphere and connectivity and on to a sustainable view of the customer process – from product development to after sales support. In addition to our dynamic entrepreneurial spirit, this passion for meeting customer needs has been an essential part of our DNA since the foundation of the company by Adolf Häfele. And that is what we want to continue to strengthen in the future.
Hafele’s brand purpose, ’Maximising the value of space. Together,' serves as a guiding compass, leading us in crafting holistic and sustainable environments for our customers where they can enjoy the multiplied benefits of their living and working spaces.
Our purpose has 4 dimensions – Functional. Intelligent, Atmospheric and Organised.
Hafele and The Fibonacci Sequence:
The Fibonacci sequence, known for its aesthetically pleasing ratios, is often used in architectural and photographic design to create visually harmonious compositions. Artists and designers apply the Fibonacci numbers to determine proportions, spacing, and dimensions in their work, creating a sense of balance and beauty. The sequence's prevalence in nature also inspires artistic creations, contributing to a visually appealing and naturally harmonious design.
In nature, the Fibonacci sequence acts as a driving force, shaping growth with elegance and harmony. It is frequently observed in the arrangement of plant structures and the spiral patterns found in various organisms. The sequence's prevalence in nature reflects its role in optimizing growth, contributing to the perceived beauty and efficiency observed in the biological world.
This mathematical marvel mirrors Häfele's dedication to creating inspired spaces, seamlessly integrating beauty and enhancing functionality through its products and services. In essence, our brand purpose and the principles of Fibonacci inspire us to unlock the full potential of space, delivering maximum value to our customers.
