I recently noticed that the lights appeared to be out at OLighting, at 40 Walker, and sure enough, Crain’s reports that Michael and Anna Trubrig are moving from Austria to open a store there. Called Stillfried Wien, it will sell furniture, interior accessories, and “selected lifestyle products, like Mühlbauer hats,” says Michael, who I managed to bother as he and his family were packing for the move. The products will be “mainly from Austria, but also from the rest of German-speaking Europe.” Manufacturers include Ton, Lichterloh, Wittmann, Team 7, Perludi, Auboeck, Rainer, Lobmeyr, Augarten, Wiener Silbermanufactur, Hussl, and many more.
The doors should open around late September.
From top: The Monday to Sunday from Pernhaupt (manufacturer is Lichterloh); the Tram chair from Thomas Feichtner (manufacturer is Ton); Mühlbauer’s Graf Theo straw hat.
