About the book >.>.> This handsome book, profusely illustrated with both color and black-and-white photographs, and with plans drawn especially for the purpose, is the first comprehensive treatment of the Vi-ennese architect and designer Josef Hoffmann (1870-1956), a founder of the Secession move-ment and the Wiener Werkst?tte and one of the foremost architects of the twentieth century. Eduard Sekler, himself an architect who knew Hoffmann personally, has devoted twenty-five years to the study of Hoffmann's oeuvre. His book, available now for the first time in English, is a rich description of the life, work, and cul-tural context of one of the pioneering figures of modern architecture and decorative design, whose work continues to influence contemporary ar-chitecture. The catalogue raisonn?, translated by John Maass and Professor Sekler, provides a comprehensive record of every known project designed by Hoffmann.

The fascinating history of the Wiener Werkstätte is told in this beautifully designed volume, which features historic photographs (some of them published for the first time here), documents, and original texts selected by experts from the MAK (where the Wiener Werkstätte archives have been kept since 1955). Many full-page illustrations feature outstanding examples of Wiener Werkstätte objects, covering architecture, furniture, ceramics, glass, books, posters, postcards, carpets, jewelry, fashion, and print design. The book also focuses on the innovative "total concept" used by the avant-garde Wiener Werkstätte to establish an early "consumer culture," since the Werkstätte was one of the first organizations to develop a corporate identity that followed a product throughout every stage, from concept and development to marketing. With a richly illustrated special section on Josef Hoffmann's Stoclet House. (German edition ISBN 3-7757-1410-3) With a 28-page facsimile of the 1905 program of the Wiener Werkstätte.
