Located in Vienna’s 2nd district, around the corner from Karmelitermarkt, kraus café bar is a modern interpretation of fin-de siècle coffee houses. In Karl Kraus’ time the Viennese coffeehouse was the center of intellectual gatherings as well as heated debates – something Kraus himself was ambivalently attached to. The restaurant aims to present a modern interpretation of this social venue and to revive the critical spirit. kraus in the digital age also weaves its satirical media criticism into the design: nonsensical fake news headlines, punctuation pedantry paired with visual indifference in form of goofy doodles.
