The furniture and objects displayed here have already become classics of Bregenzerwald craftsmanship. Quite a few were created especially for the Triennale “Handwerk+Form.” Like the Werkraum Bregenzerwald, which was founded in 1999, this stimulating design competition serves to keep traditional craftsmanship and its techniques alive and to pass them on to the current generation without becoming fashionable. The local craft businesses see this sensitive transformation as their real mission.
