The Austrian pavilion at the Werkbund Exhibition was designed by Josef Hoffmann, under whom Prutcher had trained as a student at the School of Applied Arts. In 1914 Otto Prutcher also became a vital member of the Wiener Werkstaette, for whom he designed furniture, glass, textiles, metalwork, furniture and jewelry.
