Family values Christoph Florin Ultra contemporary artists

Never grow up completely – playfulness is super important

With the paint barely dry on their most challenging project to date commissioned by Mercedes Benz (a public tennis court, unveiled by Roger Federer), we sat down with the retro-futuristic artist duo behind some of the world’s most striking murals, Christoph Florin (formerly known as Low Bros).

With a prolific output that spans painting, screen print, super-scale murals, light installations and jewellery (coming soon!), brothers Christoph and Florin opened up in the most beautiful way about their deeply embedded family values and the perfectionism behind their painstaking, analogue work, renowned for its dopamine-inducing palette, digitally-influenced dreamscapes and iconoclastic commentary on consumer culture. Step into their Miami sunset-hued world!

To bring the episode to life, this is the tennis court that had them calling their agent in despair and here’s that photo of the boys as youngsters. This is STUDIOCULT, the jewellery brand Christoph Florin are collaborating with. We’ve seen it, we’ve held it. It’s incredible.
