Description

Special offer £15.00 - rrp £26.45

Since the German reunification classical typologies such as the townhouse, the city villa and the metropolitan hotel have been experiencing an architectural renaissance in Berlin in particular. This title presents over 30 examples of current, recent and ongoing construction projects in the city, all with one thing in common: the referencing of the Berlin building tradition within the context of contemporary modern architecture.

Quite beautifully presented in English, German, Spanish and Russian, the book shows projects from renowned architects such as David Chipperfield, Hilmer & Sattler und Albrecht and Kleihues + Kleihues. From severely monolithic hotels with surprisingly soft interiors to innovative golden apartments, the selected projects are very well illustrated with plans, images and descriptive text.
