ORIGINS Son of an amateur who was following the first steps of radio, Hammes Joseff Einrich was born in Dessau in 1919. He grew up surrounded by valves and coils in a workshop where his father disarmed and studied the first radio receivers that went on the market. At the outbreak of World War II he was enlisted in the German army, where he worked in the areas of research, radio control and telecommunications. During the postwar period he met businessman Karl Lohman in Berlin, who was amazed by his technical knowledge and the high fidelity of the high quality sound amplifiers and speakers that Einrich had developed and modeled for personal consumption. Together they decided to start the production of prototypes with relevant characteristics in a Germany devastated by the war. For this they rescued some typical guidelines of the Bauhaus School. Functionality, little ornamentation, attractive designs, good quality and durability were always their principles. They managed to identify the innovative aesthetic production with industrial machinery, but always maintaining the craftsmanship of their products. Essential feature of Einrich's work since the days of the father's workshop.
