Redesign of Sacher Eck & Confiserie
Sacher is steeped in tradition—the hotel’s rich ambience makes eyes light up, and a world-famous Original Sacher Torte makes mouths water! In conjunction with a tasteful update of their Viennese flagship location, Sacher brought in Ars Electronica Solutions to enhance this historic landmark with some modern features. Installations showcasing visually stunning imagery now offer state-of-the-art modes of exploring this time-honored institution.
Four exterior showcases at the corner of Philharmoniker Straße and Kärntner Straße take a state-of-the-art approach to window dressing. A mixture of artistically executed paper cut-outs, tortes and LED panels on various levels depict some of Old World Vienna’s iconic sights of amidst an impressive visual backdrop.
