Roland Bischel’s christmas window this year is a typo solution. It seems to work well as it draws a lot of customers into his shop (mainly to complain about the mis-spellings). Whatever works: happy holidays!

We designed the overall identity for Hofstätter Projekte and also redesigned Kunsthandel Reinhold Hofstätter’s identity. The cards and letterhead were letterpress-printed onto fine cotton paper by the great Neue Satz Wien.

The new art space Hofstätter Projekte has opened its doors last friday. sensomatic are responsible for the overall design. The opening exhibition features Maurizio Nannucci, italian international conceptual artist.

”Von Wegen stilles Örtchen“ an exhibition about public toilets in Vienna is now on display until May 2015. We are responsible for architecture and design of the exhibition curated by Beatrice Jaschke and Monika Sommer.
It provides information about the history of public toilets, hygienic aspects and the dark side of these places, besides others.

For the broadest experience we tried to activate all of the visitor’s senses (but smell) with games, interactive sound installations, video cameras, animations and uv-lamps.
