History
Porsche Design / Design by F.A. Porsche: The Porsche Design Studio
was established in Stuttgart in 1972 by Professor Ferdinand
Alexander Porsche, grandson of the Porsche founder and designer of
the Porsche 911. It was relocated to Zell am See, Austria, in 1974.
The 911 quickly became the very embodiment of the sports car and,
like many other items designed by Professor F.A. Porsche, a design
classic. In the decades that followed, numerous classic men’s
accessories such as watches, eyeglasses, and writing utensils were
created and marketed worldwide under the “Porsche Design” brand. At
the same time, a large number of industrial products, household
appliances, and consumer goods – even streetcars for the city of
Vienna – were designed under the “Design by F.A. Porsche" brand for
internationally known clients. |
