Full Description
This volume provides an overview of one of Germany's most successful architectural offices: Ingenhoven Overdiek and Partner. Essays by authors such as Wolfgang Pehnt, Cologne, and Martin Pawley, London, provide an introduction to the working methods of the office, placing it within the context of the international architecture scene and history. The book then provides a thematic presentation of the office's most important projects. "Working Worlds" shows innovative designs for workplaces in offices and industry, including the new headquarters for the publishing house, Burda. In "Resources and Ecology" the RWE high-rise in Essen, the Wan Xiang International Plaza in Shanghai and the design for the administration offices at the Commerbank in Frankfurt are amongst the most spectacular buildings documented. The chapter entitled "Mobility" provides the first detailed portrayal of the design for the new central station in Stuttgart. Recent projects such as a department store in Luebeck or the planned "Central Park Berlin" are discussed in the chapter "Town and Landscape".
This volume, with its extensive visual material, aims to make the most significant buildings and projects - from the general concept to architectonic detail - accessible to a wide international audience.
