The Design Dialogue anthology is a remarkable exploration of the decisive role of Jewish patrons, professionals,
architects, designers and authors in shaping modern Viennese architecture, design, and material culture.
Leading
cultural historians, museum curators, art historians, and architects present cutting edge research examining how famous and
less known protagonists created new cultural languages, identifications and networks, engaged in social debates, and contributed
to the cultural renewal of Vienna, a major capital in Central Europe, between 1800 and 1938.
