Also this year takes Neue Wiener Werkstätte takes part at the Vienna Design Week and invites friends of design & craft to the Design-Brunch on Saturday 1st of October 2011 in the Showroom of Neue Wiener Werkstätte, Theresiengasse 6, in A-1180 Vienna.

Neue Wiener Werkstätte will be showing an installation featuring the M3 Chair developed specifically for this exhibition by Austrian designer Thomas Feichtner. This unique object will be juxtaposed with the mass-produced FX10 Lounge Chair, an earlier work by Feichtner which has since become a classic of Austrian design. While the two pieces of furniture share a basic structure that is geometric in character, the M3 chair differs from the closed-body lounge chair by virtue of its open wooden cantilever construction.

Liberated from the demands placed on a mass-produced product, this design experiments not only with structural engineering and function but also harkens back to the handcrafting tradition of the longstanding family business KAPO and Neue Wiener Werkstätte.
