SIMON TYRRELL: DESIGN STORIES
Ruby Marie Hotel & Bar
2.10.2019, 4.30pm
A lesson in the history of design above Vienna’s rooftops: As part of the VIENNA DESIGN WEEK, Ruby Marie Hotel & Bar will invite the public to a traditional festival sundowner, with Austrian and international guests.
As an introduction to his exclusive talk, Simon Tyrrell will use selected objects to illustrate the colorful history of the hotel on Kaiserstraße. For example, the Ruby Marie has Thonet chairs that Johann Strauss presumably sat on – at their original location, a casino. Staged as an exciting tête-à-tête full of anecdotes with the host, the histories behind the hotel will come alive. Pure inspiration on a Wednesday afternoon!
