The Deutsche Werkbund was founded around the Viennese architect Joseph Maria Olbrich after leaving Vienna for the city of Darmstadt, Germany, following an invitation by Ernest Louis, Grand Duke of Hesse in order to design and form an artist colony. The founding members of the Werkbund in 1907 included Joseph Maria Olbrich, Peter Behrens, Richard Riemerschmid and Bruno Paul. The constituting meeting was conducted in Munich at the instigation of Herman Muthesius. This first iteration of the Werkbund was in place until 1934, when the Nazis shut it down. It was re-established after the second world war in 1950.

For example, the Austrian Pavilion for the Expo 2020 in Dubai, which utilized Style Transfer techniques to generate the ceiling. SPAN 2018—Matias del Campo & Sandra Manninger. This design was a primitive effort in that it used the online solution by Google Deepdream to create Style Transfers. It used the Deep Style option to experiment with combinations between Baroque and Modern ceilings, transforming the resulting image into a 3D model using zBrush.
