About IGN.
Vogel Design AG sells design furniture made of solid wood under the IGN. brand, manufactured in its own manufactory in Ruswil (Central Switzerland). The collection includes tables (dining tables, conference tables, extension tables, standing tables), business furniture for offices and meeting rooms, beds, bedside tables as well as living and small furniture such as sideboards, shelving and serving trolleys. Each piece of furniture is created as a one-of-a-kind piece to the customer's specifications – wood type, size, edge profile and surface can be individually selected. Production includes multi-year storage and drying of sawn timber, planing, gluing of boards processed log by log, precise machining, veneering, assembly and surface finishing (oiling, soaping, lacquering). In addition to solid wood, the company processes steel as a frame material (raw steel, powder-coated, chrome-plated) as well as MDF. Customers are architects, interior designers and end customers; reference projects include conference tables for Pilatus Flugzeugwerke as well as custom-made tables for the yacht MILELE (Omega Architects).
