Solaenri operates in the fields of Product Design, Interiors, Strategy, Sourcing and Art Direction.
Founded 2023
Solaenri was founded in 2023 by Enri Tielmann. The studio is focused on the creation of meaningful products of uncompromising quality.
Design Philosophy
The design philosophy is guided by the pursuit of beauty, a synthesis of form, craftsmanship, dialogue, material honesty, and novelty. Each object creates a silent connection between creator and observer, reflecting the care embedded in its making. From this foundation emerges a commitment to longevity, understood not merely as sustainability, but as future heritage: objects of enduring relevance and utility, intended to be valued and passed on.
Network and Product Fields
Solaenri draws from an extensive network of manufacturers across four continents, built through long-standing collaboration and direct engagement with suppliers specialized in their disciplines. Within this industrial framework, Enri has developed upholstery, casegoods across all categories, rugs, textiles, leathers, millwork solutions, and various components worldwide.
EQ3 Rolls and Impact
At EQ3, he advanced through successive leadership roles, culminating in Chief Design Officer, with responsibility for the company’s overall creative and product strategy. During this period, EQ3 was strategically repositioned from a price-driven retailer to a vertically integrated, premium furniture manufacturer. This transformation required not only aesthetic direction, but structural change; redefining product architecture, development of new supplier networks, merchandising strategy and brand positioning. The resulting programs generated cumulative sales approaching one billion dollars, with individual collections exceeding fourteen million in annual revenue.
Client Work
Each client interaction is an opportunity to solve a unique set of constraints that can bring to life what does not yet exist. The outcome is meant to be experienced; self-evident, defined by material honesty and proven over time
