Product design is a design branch in its own right, but renowned architects often design their ideal furniture themselves. What makes furniture designed by architects special?Examples from the last 100 years from the MAK design museum's own rich collection will be on display to look into this question. The exhibits will include designs by Alvar Aalto, Marcel Breuer, Norman Foster, Daniel Libeskind, Frank Gehry, Zaha Hadid, and many others.The exhibition and this accompanying catalogue will provide visitors and readers alike with an attractive range of sculptural, futuristic and functional design.Published on the occasion of the exhibition From Aalto to Zumthor: Furniture by Architects at MAK, Cologne, 16 January – 22 April 2012.English and German text.
