Würstelhocker

What the bistro was in the 1800s, the Würstelstand is today: a stage for Vienna’s everyday gathering. The Würstelhocker (‘Sausage Stool’) is seating designed for these food stands across the city, in an overall expression of Viennese humour and snack culture.

Using the most standard objects at a sausage stand as inspiration, the stool’s instant recognisability comes from the form language of street food — the sausage-shaped seat, a wooden fork, abstracted grilling tongs. The bright Würstl nest into each other like a pack of sausages, and land at the ideal height for a quick bite or social gathering. Both functional and playful, the Würstelhocker invites pause, conversation, laughter, and connection.

While rooted in Vienna’s streetscape, the stool’s versatility extends far beyond the sidewalk. Its Pop-Art-inspired aesthetic brings a bold, humorous expression to private interiors and garden spaces alike. Weatherproof and fully outdoor-compatible, the Wuerstelhocker is both an adaptable seat and a vibrant conversation starter, guaranteed to instigate a few good sausage jokes regardless of where it stands.
