Typoskript. 86 Seiten auf 43 losen Blättern (oben links geheftet). 20x21 cm * Frei Paul Otto (* 31. Mai 1925 in Siegmar, heute Ortsteil der Stadt Chemnitz; 9. März 2015 in Warmbronn) war ein deutscher Architekt, Architekturtheoretiker und Hochschullehrer. Seine Arbeiten im Leichtbau mit Seilnetzen, Gitterschalen und anderen zugbeanspruchten Konstruktionen machten ihn zu einem der bedeutendsten Architekten des 20. Jahrhunderts. Er zählt neben Richard Buckminster Fuller und Santiago Calatrava zu den wichtigsten Vertretern einer biomorphen Architektur (organische Architektur). Ottos architektonisches Ziel und Ideal war das Bauen mit einem minimalen Aufwand an Materie, Fläche und Energie, was ihn nebenbei auch zu einem Pionier des ökologischen Bauens machte. Mit seinen leichten, flexiblen Bauten erhoffte er sich auch eine neue, offene Gesellschaft. Frei Otto ist nach Gottfried Böhm erst der zweite deutsche Architekt, der mit dem Pritzker-Preis die weltweit wichtigste Architektur-Auszeichnung erhielt (Quelle Wikipedia) Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 950.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. 2019 Edition "Primeval architecture is an architecture of necessity. Nothing is there to excess, no matter whether stone, clay, reeds or wood, animal skins or hair are used. It is minimal. It can be very beautiful even amidst poverty and is good in the ethical sense. Good architecture seems to be more important than beautiful architecture. Beautiful architecture is not necessarily good. Only buildings that are at the same time ethically good and aesthetically beautiful are worth preserving. We have too many buildings that have become useless and yet we still need new buildings, from pole to pole, in the cold and in the heat. Mans present areas of settlement are the new ecological system in which technology is indispensable, even in hot and cold areas. . Our age requires buildings that are lighter, more energy-saving, more mobile and more adaptable, in brief more natural, without disregarding the need for safety and security. This logically leads to the further development of light constructions, to the building of tents, shells, awnings and air-supported membranes. It also leads to a new mobility and changeability. A new understanding of nature is forming under one aspect of high performance form (also called classical form), which unites aesthetic and ethical viewpoints. Tomorrows architecture will again be minimal architecture, an architecture of the self-education and self-optimization processes suggested by human beings." (Frei Otto and Bodo Rasch in their foreword of this book) In 1992 the Bavarian branch of the Deutscher Werkbund awarded its first prize to Frei Otto, undoubtedly the most successful and many-sided protagonist of modern light construction, and with it a request to nominate a meritorious person to whom the prize could be passed on, and to design a joint exhibition with that person. Frei Otto chose his pupil Bodo Rasch, who had realized Ottos theories particularly in other cultures. The publication produced on this occasion provides information about scientific fundamentals and the working methods the two architects developed from these, which are characterized by "finding" not by "making". This is supposed to produce buildings that could not be more beautiful and can scarcely be improved in terms of materials and loadbearing capacity. Explains the current need for buildings that are light, energy-saving, mobile, adaptable, and natural.
