Eike is a world-renowned German designer and founder &amp; creative director of the Berlin-based creative collective HORT. He lectures at the HfG Offenbach and increasingly devotes himself to free artistic work. His art combines techniques of typography, pop art, and contemporary design.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eike shares his entrepreneurial experience about creative processes and resources, building and running a design studio, and the heritage of one day leaving it behind. He talks about what he expects from clients, how one builds a creative playground, and what role time plays in the design craft.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eikes artworks blur the lines between art and design. He discusses with Marc how the two disciplines influence each other, what inspires him and which messages he wants to put out in the world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Listen now to understand why skill is less important than attitude \u2013 and how you can cultivate it! A great episode for all creative entrepreneurs and sweet people who want to learn more about art and design work.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To find the sweetspot for your brand design, check our <a href=\"https:\/\/sweetspot-studio.com\/\">website<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sweetspot-studio.com\/podcast\/\"><strong>All episodes<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Shownotes:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eikes artist website:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/eikekonig.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/eikekonig.com\/<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eikes design studio \u201cHort\u201d:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hort.org.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.hort.org.uk\/<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eike on Instagram:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/eikekoenig\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/eikekoenig\/<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The book recommendation \u201cHow to stop time\u201d:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/45152372-how-to-stop-time\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/45152372-how-to-stop-time<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Photo credit: Vincent Riese<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sweetspot Podcast with designer &amp; artist Eike K\u00f6nig &nbsp; Art and design as a cultural commentary \u2026 a talk about the line between design and art with Eike K\u00f6nig &nbsp; &nbsp; For this episode of the Sweetspot Podcast, Marc Suess met Eike K\u00f6nig in his creative studio in Berlin.
