ArchitectureWeek Description
Available again after nearly a century, this visionary work by one of Europe's most important modern architects of the early twentieth century maps out the utopia of a global reconstruction. German architect Bruno Taut (1880-1938) was responsible for a number of groundbreaking buildings. He is equally well-known for his prodigious output of theoretical work, including his masterpiece, Alpine Architecture, in which he envisions the rebuilding of the world starting from the Alps. With full page illustrations and an informative essay on Taut's alpine architecture, this book presents a classic work of architecture to a new generation.
