Bilingual edition (English/Arabic) / Zweisprachige Ausgabe
(englisch/arabisch) Designing Modernity: Architecture in the Arab
World 1945–1973 is the result of a fascinating investigation by
international experts into the influences of modernist architecture
in the Arab world. Ten case studies provide the foundation for a
thorough exploration of the relevant cultural-historical,
sociopolitical, climatic and demographic aspects. Questions
concerning the region’s reciprocal relationship with modernist
architecture in the period from 1945 to 1973 are investigated
through the biographies of selected buildings and building
complexes from Iraq, Lebanon, Kuwait, Syria, Palestine, Jordan,
Egypt and Morocco. Texts, contemporary images, architectural
drawings and archival material are used to document the process
from commissioning and design through to completion and building
use.
