Artist Paul Freundt firmly believes that sculptural presence, although important, must not override the functional requirements of the piece.  Known for his many public installations in the Atlanta area, Paul is a member of both the Furniture Council as well as the American Craft Council.  The award-winning artist’s fans include Ted Turner, Elton John, and Brad Pitt

Now, forty years into a long career, Paul continues his passion providing clients across the country with artwork that both pleases visually and offers true utilitarian function. Minimalist in his design philosophy, the artist is a firm believer in two things: “the power of less” and “form follows function”. While primarily a metal worker, Paul is presently interested in the occasional use of stone and wood.
