Richard Neutra: The Story of the Berlin Houses 1920-1924 (Rare edition)

Hardcover | 23.37 x 3.3 x 27.18 cm | 304 pp

Hatje Cantz | 2019 | 9783775745154

Rare & Collectible

At the first mention of his name, one can easily picture his buildings - light-flooded bungalows that are lavishly composed into nature and that characterise the architectural style of the American West Coast surrounding Los Angeles. But it is sometime overlooked that the career of Richard Neutra (1892-1970) began in Berlin-Zehlendorf. And yet these houses in Zehlendorf represent a fascinating phase in Neutra’s work.

With their complex colour schemes and extravagant interior design, they reveal themselves to be more than just an experimental and radically innovative design. Indeed, these lesser-known aspects already hint at elements that will be taken up again in future projects. This publication finally provides for a rightful appreciation of Neutra’s early works and, alongside historical sources, it collects countless new and unpublished documents about the houses and their first residents.
