Description

Peter Behrens' full contribution to the history of 20th-century architecture is told in Stanford Anderson's guide to one of the great designers of our century. The book looks at the cultural and architectural context in which Behrens worked, his early career and the relation of his own house in Darmstadt to his ideal of a society where life is formed as art.

Anderson assimilates decades of research into a definitive work that considers Behrens from the most nuanced perspective yet and that clarifies many issues such as Behrens' endorsement of historical determinism and his work on Hitler's proposed monumental axis in Berlin.
