The original Carl Auböck's design career was long and varied, reaching its pinnacle of prestige at the Triennale di Milano in 1954, where he received four gold medals in recognition of his iconic work. Many of his designs are still hand crafted today by his great grandson Carl Aubock IV in the original Auböck Werkstätte in the 7th district of Vienna using the same exacting standards, high-quality materials, original molds and techniques of his legendary grandfather.

The Auböck workshop, which was part of the Austrian art movement called Wiener Werkstätte[ and is known for its Modernist Design, has been run by Carl Auböck I, II, III, and IV for more than 120 years.
