Form Follows Performance / Leistungsform: Schulitz Architekten / Arbeiten / Works 1995-2000
Helmut C. SchulitzCompelling architecture beyond ephemeral trends
With a clear analysis of the reasons behind the increasingly arbitrary character of design today, form follows performance. leistungsform takes a position that points out design avenues in a convincing and future-oriented manner. It supports this position by presenting the projects of Schulitz Architekten. This highly respected international firm has for decades remained faithful to its guiding principles and fundamental vision, and has never taken its bearings from fashionable trends. Throughout its career, it has been a constant presence on the architectural scene, with competition victories, awards, and publications. This book presents approximately fifty projects from recent years spanning every kind of construction, from office and residential buildings to transportation structures and athletic facilities.
- An authoritative critique of current architectural developments and a plea for integral design
- Project presentations include construction drawings, details, and photographs from the building site
