Designed in 1911 for the living room of Mr. Koller.
With
his creative power and, above all, his feeling for design, played a
major part in the shaping of the aestetic perception and aestetic
understanding of the 20th century.
Although educated at the Viennese
Academy, Hoffman gained much of his inspiration from the stark, cubic
Italian country house where he spent his time. He held a strong belief
in designing the inside of the house as well as the outside. Many
projects he completed encompassed total design.
He built and designed
the interior and all furnishings for the homes of Kolo Moser, Adolph
Stoclet, the writer Beer–Hoffman in Vienna and the painter Ferdinand
Hodler in Geneva. Hoffmann was committed to the betterment of
materials, and to keep the look of simplicity ever present.
His
geometric use of ornamentation and cubist forms remain classic
principles in modern design.
