The following section will describe one of the most amazing designers of the world, Josef Hoffmann. He had a curious life and creativity was endless.
The books of a very famous association, called the Vienna secession, is Josef Hoffmann, who was an Austrian architect and a designer of consumer products. He was born on December 15, 1870 in Brtnice, Moravia, now owned by the Czech Republic. The artist died on May 7, 1956. One of his most important designs is the palais Stoclet in Brussels, in Belgium. Joseph Hoffmann as a person is difficult to quantify, and he remained conceal of enigma even for family and close associates.
Josef Hoffmann, the amazing designer had an interesting life, he created wonderful things. Check some information!
-Hoffmann, the school has been a real challenge. When he was nine years old, he was transferred to the gymnasium in Iglau. Josef found the school and the strict instructions. He is not the fifth year on two occasions, it is a shame and agony for him.
-It became a great friend with Adolf Loos, the son of an architect. This is how he discovered his vocation.
-Subsequently, Josef Hoffmann studied architecture at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna. There he met Otto Wagner, who became his mentor. Theories of modern and functional Wagner architecture influenced his works.
-Josef Hoffmann has proved to be an incredible architect, noted for his early work. The Purkersdorf Sanatorium is only one of its achievements architectural early but spectacular. Another impressive building is called the Stoclet Palace, which can be characterized as elegant, by straight lines, rectangles and the squares.
-Drawings of combined Hoffman of the functionality and simplicity with sophisticated and innovative ornamental details and geometric elements. It is very important precursor of the modern movement and Art Deco.
-Despite the fact that he was a master in the design of ironworking zone o, he turned attention to fashion designers too.
Hoffmann has been very criticized the artist. Early in his career, he received favorable critical attention. International exhibitions of Hoffmann also contributed to the well known name, and several distinguished contributors to the Festschrift on his sixtieth birthday renamed him as a master. Hoffmann has also accepted the Commander Cross and honorary fellowship of the American Institute of Architects. Although he gets praise and honors, at the time of his death he has been forgotten. In my view, his work has been extraordinary, and I am happy that some of his designs are still produced.
