High-Tech/Low-Tech (HTLT) Furniture: This is a furniture line that combines two different production techniques: recycling and coating.

Low-Tee: Furniture pieces with new functions are designed and built using reused materials such as wood, metal, packaging scraps, and various other materials.

High-Tee: In a second step, the furniture and objects are given a high-quality coating using an overspray process. This makes the furniture even more durable and suitable for outdoor use.

All High-Tech/Low-Tech (HTLT) furniture pieces are one-of-a-kind and “made by the artist” Karl Emilio Pircher & Fidel Peugeot. 

The furniture is signed and numbered using a laser printer gun.
