Direktion für Alle!

Friendly Takeover

Since December 2024, the Direktion für Alle! has been open to all visitors of the MAK. As a place to simply take a rest but also for creative activities such as workshops, readings, receptions, or performances.
Originally, this room served as the meeting room of the board of trustees. Later it was used as the Directors’ Office. The distinctive shelves made of cast concrete, designed by Peter Noever during his tenure, now contain numerous educational materials in handcrafted archive boxes. In 2021, General Director Lilli Hollein opened this room to the public.

The mischer’traxler design studio took the needs of a diverse audience into account when designing the room. This spatial design was implemented with the support of the Heinzel Group und Cornelius Grupp.
