Part artistry,
part poetry.

From Start to Finish, a Living Relic

MosArt is a direct reflection of the dynamic union between the worlds of historic preservation and cultural scholarship and artistic expression. This blending of the two worlds has enabled Bruce Schuettinger and MosArt to create truly unique and fascinatingly-titled, one-of-a-kind works of functional art that will stand the test of time and become tomorrow’s cherished heirlooms.

Inspiration and Motivation

MosArt is inspired by the beauty and complexity that lies in nature and by the great artists and craftsmen from many cultures and throughout history. They include such notable artists as Piet Mondrian, Gerrit Rietveld, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, and Wassily Kandinsky, along with the fine art movements they were a part of that included Neo-Plasticism, Abstract Expressionism, and Constructivism. The notably important craftsmen that have inspired Bruce and MosArt include Andre Charles Boulle, Abraham and David Roentgens, Emile-Jacques Ruhlmann, and Wendell Castle. MosArt is motivated to instill in our current culture that furniture is a medium of functional art, that like architecture, should be viewed as an art form that not only is beautiful and fulfilling to look at, but also a joy to use.

Sustainability

MosArt is compelled in the design, material usage, and production of its furniture to practice green, sustainable and renewable practices, while also abiding by LEED certification guidelines. We typically utilize “old stock” wood and lumber from naturally downed trees as well as reclaimed wood and other natural materials in the production of our furniture. Our studio’s use of electricity is 100% powered by photovoltaic solar panels.
