Villa Skywa-Primavesi, Protected villa in Hietzing, Austria.

Villa Skywa-Primavesi is a representative villa at Gloriettegasse 14–16 in Vienna-Hietzing, built 1913–1915 by Josef Hoffmann for industrialist Robert Primavesi and Josefine Skywa. Hoffmann, a leading figure of the Wiener Werkstätte, gave the house a structured facade and a Jugendstil garden that is listed as a garden monument under Austria's heritage protection law.

The house was built between 1913 and 1915 when industrial entrepreneur Robert Primavesi commissioned the renowned architect Josef Hoffmann. After 1945, its purpose shifted when trade unions took over the property and used it for training activities.

The villa's name links two figures: Robert Primavesi, an industrialist and Reichsrat deputy born in Olomouc, and his much younger partner Josefine Skywa. It is not the same as the Vila Primavesi in Olomouc, a frequent mix-up. The house later served as a trade-union training centre, and in 2005 the Österreichischer Gewerkschaftsbund sold it to aluminium industrialist Peter König.

Villa Skywa-Primavesi at Gloriettegasse 14–16 in Hietzing is a private residence, so visits are limited to the view from the street; the garden is not open to the public. The 1956 redesign of Hoffmann's garden can be seen from outside the property line.

Josef Hoffmann's Jugendstil garden was redesigned in 1956 but kept its original appearance. It is listed as monument number 51 in the annex to § 1 Abs. 12 of Austria's Denkmalschutzgesetz, among the country's most important garden-architecture monuments.
