At the first mention of his name, one can easily picture them:
light-flooded bungalows that are lavishly composed into nature and
that characterize 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 color
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. The present 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and unpublished documents about the houses and their first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.
