Emanuel Josef Margold (1889-1962)
After studying architecture at the academy in Vienna and working as an independent architect, Emanuel Josef Margold joined the Wiener Werkstätte in 1909, where he worked closely with Josef Hoffmann (1870-1956). In 1911, he settled in Darmstadt and became a member of the Darmstadt Artists’ Colony. Margold became famous for his corporate designs for the food company Hermann Bahlsen in Hannover. This collaboration began in 1912 and probably lasted until the end of the First World War. His innovative style was strongly influenced by Josef Hoffmann and the Viennese School and served the Art Nouveau industry as an exemplary repertoire of forms until the 1930s. The Bahlsen biscuit factory won numerous awards for its boxes designed by Margold.
