More about the exhibition

In the 1930s, the textile designer Otti Berger (1898–1944) created fabrics for modernist architecture which continue to fascinate us today. Her designs are characterised by an impressive interplay of aesthetics, function and technical innovation that have fundamentally changed our notion of what textiles can be and do.

As of 1927, Otti Berger studied and taught at the Bauhaus and, after 1932, began working freelance. She worked for customers across the European continent and secured numerous patents.
