The Velvet and Silk Cafe

The Velvet and Silk Café was a series of exhibitions created by Mies Van Der Rohe and Lilly Reich in the 1920’s, to share modernist design with the general public: to create interest and excitement for this new ethos within each city in which they exhibited. The first of the series was held in Berlin in 1927. Taking inspiration from Mies and Lilly, The Velvet and Silk Cafe is organising a series of presentations by and for architects and designers based in Glasgow.
