After graduating in Product Design from Munich University of Applied Sciences in 2019, Lukas Heintschel (*1995) initially worked in the fields of medical design and robotics. In 2021, as part of a startup program run by Munich University of Applied Sciences and the Strascheg Center for Entrepreneurship, he co-founded the lighting brand Neozoon.

 

Through exhibitions in the emerging designer sections of various trade fairs and design weeks, Lukas Heintschel increasingly connected with established brands and, alongside his first design collaborations, founded his studio, Lukas Heintschel Design.

 

His work is characterized by a narrative design language and a conceptual approach that challenges conventions. Combining calm, architectural forms with playful details, his designs create objects that are both restrained and expressive.

​

In 2025, together with other young designers from Munich, he co-founded the collective Stammtisch, which made its debut exhibition the following year at Munich Design Days.

 

Among his clients are Tecta, Auerberg and COR.
