The young designer about Vienna's hidden sandy beaches and imperial morning runs
What do you like about the area? Why are you in the 7th district?
I just have the feeling of being in the right place. My neighborhood is a hub of young creative minds. Each little alley features small boutiques, a wonderful variety.
What are you selling? What is the passion behind it?
"Craft with Vision". VIS A VIS does not only offer fashion pieces but also gives insights into the production itself. I sew everything myself, right in the shop. VIS A VIS values quality, natural materials and timeless designs and has a heightened awareness of fair production and environtment. I combine the sporty influences from my home Tyrol with urban chic.

A "Nutellapalatschinken" - a Viennese version of a pancake - with strawberries and Nutella at Garda, "Marillenknödel" - apricot dumplings - at Otto Bauer.

"Gulasch mit Nockerl" - Gulash with mini dumplings at Gasthaus Quell or a Classic: Wiener Schnitzel at Skopik & Lohn.
When it gets dark
Enjoy some natural wine at the garden of Landkind, meet friends at the danube channel and enjoy some "Spritzer" - white wine with soda - and fish on the stick at the riverbank and a movie at the Augarten's open air cinema.
Not in any tourist guide
Danube island after kilometre 19,5 - with its little sandy bathing spots.
Your favourite place?
The Gloriette with its view at the Schönbrunn Gardens after a morning run.
Must-See?
Karmelitermarkt on a Saturday morning - with its recurring farmer's market.
Can be skipped although in the guidebook
Taking the ferry's wheel "Riesenrad", better enjoy a cocktail at a cool rooftop bar.
What do you love about your city?
Vienna often makes me feel as if I was on holiday. This is probably thanks to its diversity.
