FROM MODEL TO FACTORY – AN EXHIBITION WITH STORIES (AND HISTORY)
28.9.–7.10.2018
The Brillantengrund in the heart of the Focus District, Neubau, has always provided fertile ground for handicraft businesses. This is also the home of the Imperial Furniture Collection, fixed point and institutional partner of every VIENNA DESIGN WEEK. Not far from it, you’ll find the home of werKnussbaumer, where furniture is designed by hand and made by hand – thinking in terms of three dimensions occupies the foreground of the creative process. The exhibition presented a selection of 1:10 scale models and the story of their creation, showed children’s furniture by werKnussbaumer, and hosted two evenings where visitors were invited to listen to Werner Nussbaumer’s stories and discover that it’s often the little things that are important in life and good design!
