JOSEF HOFFMANN (Brtnice, Czech Republic, 1870 - Vienna, 1956) for Wittmann. "Kubus" armchair.Designed in 1910, reissued in the 1960s. Upholstered in black square-stitched leather, frame and legs in solid wood. Armchair with patina typical of its age. Made by Wittmann; Wittmann label and plaque. Measurements: 70 x 90 x 75 cm. Seat height: 40 cm. The Kubus design for Wittmann, created by Josef Hoffmann in 1910, signified a clear break with the excessive ornamentation of historicism and an affirmation of modern geometric language, based on the repetition of the square as a structural and aesthetic module. This piece not only reflected the ideals of the Wiener Werkstätte - precision, high quality craftsmanship and unity between form and function - but also anticipated 20th century rationalism by reducing furniture to clearly defined cubic volumes, becoming an early icon of modern design where structure and form take absolute prominence. An architect and industrial designer, Josef Hoffmann studied at the Academy of Applied Arts in Vienna, where he was a disciple of Carl Freiherr von Hasenauer and Otto Wagner, whose theories of a functional and modern architecture would profoundly influence his work. He won the Rome Prize in 1895, and the following year joined Wagner's office, collaborating with Olbrich on some projects for the Metropolitan. He established his own office in 1898, and taught at the Vienna School of Decorative Arts from 1899 to 1936. He was also a founding member of the Viennese Secession. In 1900 he traveled to London, where he came into contact with the English school and discovered Mackintosh. On his return he set up a workshop for the production of objects based on designs by artists of the Secession, and thus the Wiener Werkstätte was born, a workshop that exerted a great influence on the industrial design of the twentieth century. By 1903, production began on an international scale. Throughout his life, Hoffmann realized various projects for buildings and furnishings, and exhibited his creations all over the world. He is currently represented in the MAK and the Leopold Museum in Vienna, the Metropolitan and MoMA in New York, the Brohan in Berlin, the Courtauld Institute in London and the Victoria & Albert in London, among many others.

JOSEF HOFFMANN (Brtnice, Czech Republic, 1870 – Vienna, 1956) for Alivar. Kubus Sofa. Designed in 1910, produced ca. 1980. Upholstered in black leather. Solid wood frame. Signed. Condition: patina and signs of wear consistent with its age. Measurements: 70 x 220 x 80 cm. The “Kubus” sofa is one of Josef Hoffmann’s most iconic designs and a landmark piece in the history of modern furniture. Conceived in 1910, it embodies the principles of the Wiener Werkstätte: geometric precision, exceptional craftsmanship, and formal simplicity. Its characteristic grid of square, upholstered modules transforms the sofa’s volume into a true work of domestic architecture—bold and elegant. This Alivar edition, produced around 1980, recaptures the power of the original model in a spacious three-seater format, with black leather upholstery and a solid wood frame. The piece retains a particularly appealing presence for contemporary interiors, high-end interior design projects, and collections of 20th-century historical design. An architect, designer, and co-founder of the Wiener Werkstätte alongside Koloman Moser, Hoffmann was a pivotal figure in the transition to European modernism. His works are part of major international collections, including the MAK and the Leopold Museum in Vienna, the MoMA and the Metropolitan Museum in New York, the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, and the Brohan Museum in Berlin.

This pair of Thonet-style chairs is characterized by its classic and elegant design, which stands out for its forms and bentwood work, giving it an organic appearance. Michael Thonet, a leading exponent of Viennese Art Nouveau, invented his own technique that made it possible to curve the wood in a unique way, giving it great plasticity and lightness, as can be seen in this openwork backrest, along with the armrests in the form of scrolls and slight curve of the legs.

JOSEF HOFFMANN (Austria, 1870-1956), for Wittmann Pair of armchairs model "Cabinet". Original design ca.1903. Ash and velvet. In good vintage condition, with signs of use commensurate with age.
Est: €2,000 - €2,500
JOSEF HOFFMANN (Austria, 1870-1956), for Wittmann Pair of armchairs model "Cabinet". Original design ca.1903. Ash and velvet. In good vintage condition, with signs of use commensurate with age. Pair of armchairs with rigorous lines and refined architecture, characteristic of Josef Hoffmann's language. The cubic structure in ash wood defines a clear and balanced volume, where geometry becomes an essential element of the design. The velvet upholstery adds depth and comfort, softening the strict orthogonality of the whole. These pieces reflect the principles of the Wiener Werkstätte, where Hoffmann sought a synthesis of functionality, elegance and formal purity. A key architect and designer of Viennese modernity, Hoffmann was a disciple of Otto Wagner and a founding member of the Viennese Secession. Co-founder of the Wiener Werkstätte, he developed a geometric language that had a decisive influence on 20th century design. His work is present in museums such as the MAK and the Leopold Museum in Vienna, as well as the MoMA and the Metropolitan Museum in New York.

Josef Hoffmann* (Pirnitz 1870 - 1956 Vienna)
Est: €300 - €600
Josef Hoffmann* (Pirnitz 1870 - 1956 Vienna) Design for a facade pencil/paper 21 x 34 cm SCHÄTZPREIS / ESTIMATE °€ 300 - 600 STARTPREIS / STARTING PRICE °€ 300 Josef Hoffmann, a student of Otto Wagner, was one of the central figures of Viennese Modernism as an architect and designer. In 1903, together with Koloman Moser and the industrialist Fritz Waerndorfer, he founded the Wiener Werkstätte (WW), modeled on the British Arts and Crafts Movement and under the influence of Viennese Art Nouveau. Hoffmann, a friend of Gustav Klimt and Anton Hanak, among others, remained one of the WW's most important designers until its bankruptcy in 1932. The Wiener Werkstätte, also referred to as Wiener Werkstatt, Vienna Workshop, Wiener Werkstaetten or Wiener Werkstätten, aimed to unite the entire spheres of human life in design, in the sense of a Gesamtkunstwerk. Its customers were mainly artists and the upwardly mobile Jewish upper and middle classes. Josef Hoffmann's acquaintance with Berta Zuckerkandl led to the first major commission: the Purkersdorf Sanatorium, planned by Viktor Zuckerkandl, Berta's brother-in-law, west of Vienna. Among the WW staff were about a dozen women who were crucial to the change in style from Art Nouveau to Art Déco in the 1920s, e.g. Vally Wieselthier, Gudrun Baudisch, Reni Schaschl, Hilda Jesser and Susi Singer. Josef Hoffmann survived the Nazi period unscathed despite hostility from the Nazi architectural ideologist Paul Schmitthenner. He was commissioned by the Reich Chamber of Fine Arts to further develop the Vienna Arts and Crafts Association (a Nazi successor organization to the Austrian Werkbund) as its artistic director. To this end, an "artistic experimental institute" was founded in 1941, where young artisans could further their education under Hoffmann's guidance. After the war, in 1948, Hoffmann founded the Österreichische Werkstätten as the successor to the Wiener Werkstätte und Werkbund (ÖWB), of which he had been a member until 1920. Hoffmann's gravestone was designed by Fritz Wotruba. Further artists and styles: Otto Wagner, Koloman Moser, Gustav Klimt, Josef Maria Olbrich, Michael Thonet, Vienna Secession, Wiener Werkstätte, Palais Stoclet, Kabellhaus Brussels, Vienna School of Applied Arts, Purkersdorf, Fünfhäuser Vienna, Thonet, Geometric Style, Vienna Secession Architects, Art Nouveau Furniture, Gesamtkunstwerk Modernism PLEASE NOTE: The purchase price consists of the highest bid plus the buyer's premium, sales tax and, if applicable, the fee of artists resale rights. In the case of normal taxation (marked ° at the estimate), a premium of 24% is added to the highest bid. The mandatory sales tax is added to the sum of the highest bid and the buyer's premium. This amounts to 13% for paintings, drawings, graphic works and sculptures and 20% for photographs and all other items. The buyer's premium amounts to 28% in case of differential taxation. The sales tax is included in the differential taxation.
