Sehnsucht MD639A05

Sehnsucht (longing) itself, too, is guided by lines and forms that lie against each other like webs and give the fabric an up-and-down movement. Synchronicity and asynchrony, lightness and depth are once again equally at work, as in many designs by Josef Hoffmann, who brings complex contrasts into a single moment again to capture them in his fabric pattern of 1904.
