Gae Aulenti: A Creative Universe

Gae Aulenti is one of the most influential architects and designers of the post-war period. As early as the 1960s, her iconic creations played a vital role in Italy’s global dominance within the field of product design. The Italian designer gained international renown for her transformation of a Parisian train station into the Musée d’Orsay (1980–1986). But although Aulenti realized over 700 projects, she is relatively unknown outside her native Italy.

The Vitra Schaudepot presents roughly 35 items from across her career, complemented by photographs, sketches, and drawings, as well as a slideshow, documentary films, and interviews.
