This book provides an overview of residential buildings and housing developments in Germany from this time that have been recognized as historical monuments.Numerous impressive buildings in various areas, including single-family houses, residential developments, high-rise buildings, and experimental structures are thus brought into the current research discussion anew based on a broad range of materials. In light of the current wave of reconstruction, the book focuses on an architectural era whose historical monument quality has not yet been accepted as a matter of course.

The book is richly illustrated and addressed to both experts as well as a broader audience. weiterlesen
