The works of the designer Werner Aisslinger cover the spektrum of experimental,
artistic approaches, including industrial design and architecture. He delights

"Juli chair" was the first item of furniture to use a new type of foam
called "polyurethanintegralfoam" and became the first German chair to
be selected as a permanent exhibit at the MoMA in New York since 1964. In the
process he has created striking designs and received awards from all over the
