Koloman Moser

Artist and designer

Viennese artist, co-founder of the Wiener Werkstätte, who designed furniture, silver, glass and postage stamps.

Koloman Moser co-founded the Vienna Secession in 1897 and the Wiener Werkstätte in 1903 with Josef Hoffmann.

His furniture, often chequered and inlaid with mother-of-pearl, and his graphics shaped the geometric Viennese style.
