Central Switzerland, the region around Lake Lucerne, is praised
worldwide for the prettiness of its landscape and the dramatic
mountain scenery. The city of Lucerne, the nearby mountains and the
lake are world-famous tourist destinations. Yet little is known
internationally about the region's 20th-century architecture,
besides Jean Nouvel's celebrated culture and convention complex KKL
in Lucerne. The Swiss photographer Guido Baselgia has created a
vast series of photographs documenting this scarcely published
architectural world. His carefully conceived images show individual
buildings as well as larger groups, revealing their specific
architectural qualities as well as their setting within the
environment. Included are private and public buildings, residential
as well as industrial structures. 'Metropolis Central Switzerland'
presents Baselgia's photographs of around 80 buildings in duotone
and in a lavish landscape format book design. A discussion among
four experts on architectural quality and on chances, challenges
and failures in spatial development and urban planning complements
the images.
