The Glass of the Architects Vienna 1900 - 1937

The Glass of the Architects is the first publication to focus on the fascinating revolution of glassmaking in Austria from 1900 to 1937. It tells the story of the group of young visionaries that created the distinctive style of Viennese Glass and paved the way for pioneering developments in 20th-century glass production.

Featuring key works by architects and designers who would go on to become leading figures of Viennese Modernism - Josef Hoffmann, Koloman Moser, Joseph Maria Olbrich, Leopold Bauer, Otto Prutscher, Oskar Strnad, Oswald Haerdtl and Adolf Loos - this reference book presents over 300 works from private collections and from the MAK Austrian Museum of Applied Arts / Contemporary Art in Vienna
