Bentwood chairs by Thonet are still used in Viennese coffeehouses, and armchairs from the Middle Ages to the present day look absolutely inviting. Biedermeier sofas surprise with pink, green, yellow, or red colors, because the Biedermeier style, with its simple and clear shapes, is considered the cradle of design .
Glass, china, silver, and textiles of the highest quality and in unusual designs were produced at the Wiener Werkstätte , which was founded in 1904 by Josef Hoffmann and Koloman Moser. A hammered silver service by Hoffmann or a black and white vase will thrill not only lovers of art nouveau.
Architecture models by Coop Himmelb(l)au, Frank O. Gehry, Lebbeus Woods, Zaha Hadid, and others offer insights into spectacular contemporary architecture. And the Frankfurt Kitchen of 1926 designed by Margarete Schütte-Lihotzky for municipal housing has become legendary.
Contemporary art
by Donald Judd, James Turrell, Gorden Matta-Clark, and others as well as 12 sofas by Franz West represent the artistic world of today.
Young and unusual

culinary delights
