Geschichte

Authentic and exclusive producer of classical lighting icons from the Wiener Werkstätte,
French Art Deco and German Bauhaus, WOKA is a traditional manufacturer based in Vienna.

With each design‘s history the productions strongly refer to the past; yet unmistakeably modern and timeless. The Woka collection today expands with new editions.
A short review:
Thanks to the Wiener Werkstätte in the beginning of the 20th century,
Vienna enjoyed worldwide recognition; a lot of artists became noticed in this creative and productive period. Finest quality, functionality and a simple language in shape were decisive components for their inventions. Still today they influence our perception and understanding in design and arts.
The architects and artists, aiming for the same ideals, inspired each other and questioned former restrictions. Many of them such as Josef Hoffmann and Kolo Moser,
as well as their competitor Adolf Loos are well known today; they are masters of an epoch, that opened the doors to a world of design.
