He created paintings,illustrations,furniture, interior designs, glass,metalware, jewellery, posters and postage stamps. He was a student at the Akademie der Bildenden Künste in Vienna, then at the college of applied arts, where he subsequently taught from 1899.
In 1897, he was one of the founders of the Vienna Secession, which he left in 1905 with the Klimt group, and worked for the journal Ver Sacrum. Together with Josef Hoffmann, in 1903, he founded the Wiener Werkstätte, whose products were strongly influenced by his predominantly geometric style. As his artistic influence waned, he left the group in 1906 and concentrated exclusively on painting.
He was one of the first artists to design stamps in the Jugendstil style, including the first stamps for Liechtenstein (1912-18).
