The foundational research work Der Eckhausgrundriss by the
Deutsches Institut für Stadtbaukunst categorizes examples of
corner building layouts from the past 200 years. With the help of
these varied floor plans, it explains the principles to bear in
mind when designing urban corner buildings. As such, it serves as
an architectural aid in the design of corner buildings—an
essential element of urban blocks—as well as clarifying the
relationship between these buildings and the morphology of the
city. The editors demonstrate that thoughtfully planned corner
buildings, whether free-standing or attached, are required for the
design of clearly defined urban spaces, as they have decisive
impact on the spatial quality of the adjoining streets and squares.
The third edition of this volume expands the collection of corner
building floor plans with examples realized by twenty-nine
architects in recent years, as well as a number of classic corner
building layouts. In doing so, it further showcases the renewed
importance of this type of building in contemporary architectural
practice.
