Synopsis
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.

Bilingue allemand/anglais
Bruno Taut is generally considered to be the leading housing estate architect of the modern era. He was also city planner, designer, social reformer, Utopian and above all artist. Harnessing the latest architectural techniques and centering his creations wholly around the needs of people who were to inhabit them. Taut made a lasting impression on the housing construction of his time. Under the affectionate yet disparaging gaze of the Berliners he built housing developments such as the "Hufeisensiedlung" in the Britz district, the garden city of Falkenberg (dubbed the "Ink Box Colony") and the woodland estate of "Onkel Tom's Hutte".
On the occasion of the 125th anniversary of Bruno Taut's birth, Otto Schily, Edzard Reuter and the architect and Taut expert Winfried Brenne trace Taut's life and work in Berlin.
An homage by the German Werkbund to one of the most significant personalities of the 20th century, a celebration to the "Master of colourful architecture".
Bruno Taut gilt als der bedeutendste Siedlungsarchitekt der Moderne. Zugleich war er Stadtplaner, Sozialreformer, Utopist und vor allem Künstler. Er prägte den Wohnungsbau seiner Zeit unter Zuhilfenahme der neuesten architektonischen Erkenntnisse, indem er Menschen zur Grundlage seines Schaffens machte. Von den Berlinern anfangs liebevoll-spöttisch beobachtet, baute Taut unter anderem die Hufeisensiedlung in Britz, die "Kolonie Tuschkasten" genannte Gartenstadt Falkenberg und die Waldsiedlung Onkel Toms Hütte.
Zu seinem 125. Geburtstag begeben sich unter anderem der Architekt und Taut-Kenner Winfried Brenne, Otto Schily und Edzard Reuter auf die Spurensuche nach Taut und seinem Berliner Werk.
Eine Hommage des Deutschen Werkbundes an eine der wichtigsten Persönlichkeiten des 20. Jahrhunderts, eine Hommage an den "Meister des farbigen Bauens".

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'Bruno Taut zählt zu jenen eindrucksvollen Gestalten des frühen 20.

Otto Schily Bruno Taut (1880-1938) gilt als der bedeutendste Siedlungsarchitekt der Moderne. Er prägte - mit nicht weniger als 10.000 Wohnungen - maßgeblich den Wohnungsbau seiner Zeit, indem er mit den neuesten architektonischen Erkenntnissen arbeitete und gleichzeitig den Menschen zur Grundlage seines Schaffens machte. Diese aktualisierte und erweiterte Neuauflage ist eine Hommage an eine der wichtigsten Persönlichkeiten des 20. Jahrhunderts. Sie präsentiert einen umfassenden Überblick zu Bruno Tauts Werk, unter ihnen die berühmte 'Hufeisensiedlung' in Britz, die 'Tuschkastensiedlung' genannte Gartenstadt Falkenberg und die Waldsiedlung 'Onkel Toms Hütte'.
