While German design retailer Ikarus has been liquidated, the brand continues. Cairo AG, a company specialising in high-quality design furniture and accessories, has acquired the brand. The webshop ikarus.de is now accessible again under the theme 'Restart: Ikarus powered by Cairo'.
A printed Ikarus design catalogue is planned for release in the fall. 'Cairo and Ikarus have significant overlap in their product ranges, though Cairo has traditionally focused more on commercial customers. With the new Ikarus webshop, former customers will be offered an inspiring and reliable new selection,' says Gero Furchheim, spokesperson for the board of Cairo AG.
