Book excerpt: This revised and extended edition presents the extensive catalogue of Bruno Taut's architectural works and provides insight into the creative work and life of the exceptional artist.Bruno Taut (1880-1938) is generally considered the leading housing estate architect of the modern era. Utilizing the latest architectural techniques and concentrating on the needs of the people who were to inhabit his buildings, he made a lasting impression on the housing construction of his time - which is not simply reflected by the 10,000 flats built by him. This revised and extended edition presents the extensive catalogue of Bruno Taut's works. Each project is portrayed by means of texts, plans as well as historic and contemporary photos. Proven experts lead the reader through the creative work and life of Bruno Taut in several introductory essays that show him not only as a city planner, designer and social reformer but above all as an artist who therefore truly deserves to be honored as the master of colourful architecture in Berlin.

Book excerpt: This book presents Bruno Taut's Horseshoe Estate in Berlin by means of photos and plans and introduces "Taut's Home", a rentable house in the style of the 1920s The architect Bruno Taut (1880-1938) is regarded as a master of colorful building, setting new standards worldwide with his estates. Especially the housing estate known as "Hufeisensiedlung" in Berlin-Britz, built from 1925 to 1932, is internationally recognized as a key work of reform-oriented housing. The colorful estate, which was designed with lots of green spaces, is grouped around a 350-meter long building complex, spectacularly curved in the shape of a horseshoe. The building ensemble is a reflection of the urban development model "light, air and sun for everyone" and was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2008. This high-quality architecture guidebook gives readers an insight into the history of architecture and construction as well as social history. Furthermore, it highlights current issues such as preservation and the increasing privatization and presents the project "Taut's Home", a rentable row house with garden, completely restored in the style of the 1920s.

An updated chapter offers perspectives on sustainable tourism also after the COVID-19 pandemic.
Book Synopsis The City Crown by Bruno Taut by : Matthew Mindrup
Download or read book The City Crown by Bruno Taut written by Matthew Mindrup and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-09 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first English translation of the German architect Bruno Taut’s early twentieth-century anthology Die Stadtkrone (The City Crown). Written under the influence of World War I, Taut developed The City Crown to promote a utopian urban concept where people would live in a garden city of ’apolitical socialism’ and peaceful collaboration around a single purpose-free crystalline structure. Taut’s proposal sought to advance the garden city idea of Ebenezer Howard and rural aesthetic of Camillo Sitte’s urban planning schemes by merging them with his own ’city crown’ concept. The book also contains contributions by the Expressionist poet Paul Scheerbart, the writer and politician Erich Baron and the architectural critic Adolf Behne. Although the original German text was republished in 2002, only the title essay of The City Crown has previously been translated into English. This English translation of Taut’s full anthology, complete with all illustrations and supplementary texts, fills a significant gap in the literature on early modern architecture in Germany and the history of urban design. It includes a translators’ preface, introduction and afterword to accompany the original composition of essays, poems, designs and images. These original texts are accompanied by illustrations of Taut’s own designs for a utopian garden city of 300,000 inhabitants and over 40 additional historic and contemporary examples. The new preface to The City Crown explains the premise for the English translation of Taut’s anthology, its organization and the approaches taken by the translators to maintain the four different voices included in the original work. Matthew Mindrup’s introduction critically examines the professional and intellectual developments leading up to and supporting Bruno Taut’s proposal to advance the English garden city concept with a centralized communal structure of glass, the city crown. Through the careful examination of original

This book was released on 2017-08-03 with total page 849 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1992, this book collects together the papers presented at the International Symposium on Design Review which was held to address the growing tendency of local governments to institute programs of aesthetic control. The editor argues that the widespread adoption of design review processes in the years preceding the conference necessitated thoroughgoing professional criticism and a number of areas of debate are identified and addressed in the subsequent papers. Are the difficulties experienced by planners, community activists and architects with the process due to its relative youth or inherent flaws in the entire concept? How should mechanical problems like time and expense, the ease with which the process can be manipulated, and general inefficiencies in the system be resolved? More intricate problems are also addressed, such as: who has the power to judge the aesthetic quality of a building, whether design review infringes on the rights of the individual especially under the First Amendment, whether the design review process is "fair", and the difficulty for the reviewer of deciding what is right and what is wrong having taken into account factors that can be highly subjective or contradict more practical concerns.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seit dem fruehen 20. Jahrhundert und besonders in den letzten Jahrzehnten veranderten sich die raumlichen Gefuege der Groastadte so rasch und tief greifend, dass man von einer grundlegenden Transformation sprechen muss. Die Peripherien der Stadte wuchsen geplant und ungeplant in eine Groaenordnung hinein, welche die Vorstellung der klassischen aEuropaischen Stadto in Frage stellt. Neue Infrastrukturen und Medien ueberlagerten den Stadtraum, brachten neue virtuelle und reale Raumbeziehungen hervor. Nicht nur siedelten sich die Medien im Stadtraum selbst an (Pressegebaude, Kinos), sondern es anderte sich zugleich die Art und Weise, wie der stadtische Raum in Medien reprasentiert wurde. Mediatisierte Stadtvorstellungen wirkten wiederum auf die Wahrnehmung und die Planung von Stadt zurueck. Dies wird in dem Band aus der Sicht verschiedener Disziplinen dargestellt. Auf theoretischer Ebene mochte er zu einer Wiederaufnahme und Dynamisierung des Raumbegriffs beitragen. Inhalt Clemens Zimmermann: Einleitung: Raumgefuege und Medialitat der Groastadte im 20.

Book Synopsis The Crystal Chain Letters by : Iain Boyd Whyte
Download or read book The Crystal Chain Letters written by Iain Boyd Whyte and published by MIT Press (MA). This book was released on 1985-01 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Crystal Chain - "Die glaserne Kette" - was a utopian correspondence initiated by Bruno Taut in 1919-1920, in which a small group of like-minded architects and artists exchanged ideas on what form the architecture of the future should take. Unfettered by the demands of practicability, the members of the group described their visions of an ideal society and of a beneficent architecture in a series of dazzling, fantastic letters and drawings. Although the letters are referred to in almost every survey of twentieth century architecture, this is the first book to offer in English the complete texts of all the known Crystal Chain letters, including some which have never been published in German. The letters are accompanied by illustrations, an introductory essay, and explanatory notes. The Crystal Chain letters document the crisis of modernism that afflicted German architectural theory in the years immediately following the First World War. The trauma of the war and the subsequent social unrest led the radical architects to reject the materialism and positivism that had characterized the "Kaiserreich." The result was an ideological and aesthetic vacuum, and the search for suitable alternatives provided the basis for the correspondence. After a year of intense theoretical speculation, several of the links in the chain, including Bruno and Max Taut, Walter Gropius, Hans and Wassili Luckhardt, and Hans Scharoun, emerged as leading advocates and practitioners of the new architecture in Germany. Iain Boyd Whyte is an English architectural historian. He is the author of several books including Bruno Taut and the Architecture of Activism, and the translator of Industriekultur: Peter Behrens and the AEG (MIT Press, 1984).
