Austrian-born architect Josef Frank’s Bunzl House was built in Vienna in 1936 and was, upon completion, one of the finest examples of Modern architecture in the city. Frank left Austria for Sweden whilst the property was being constructed, making Bunzl House his last project in Vienna.
Frank, whose work came to define Scandinavian modern design, was focused on the human side of architecture, designing his properties with people’s everyday needs in mind.
