This publication accompanies an exhibition on Georgian architecture
at the Deutsches Architekturmuseum (DAM) in Frankfurt am Main,
which is the first of its kind in Germany. The catalogue examines
the multi-layered processes of social and urban transformation, and
the resulting architecture, which traces the country's various
different political periods, yet also forms part of an
international context. The focus is on the new and old metropolis
of the Caucasus: Tbilisi. The phenomenon of this capital city, with
its history, heterogenous cultures, social stratifications, and
architecture, is constantly being redesigned and restaged by
different protagonists. A site for the demolition of the Old, a
factory of the New, and an emerging, chaotic, confusing, and
fascinating place in search of itself within its traditions, bonds,
and hopes - Tbilisi is a hybrid city.

The German Architecture Annual, published by the Deutsches
Architekturmuseum (DAM) in Frankfurt am Main, has been documenting
the architectural events taking place in Germany for almost 40
years. This year's annual presents a number of interviews with
distinguished authors who discuss 22 buildings in Germany
shortlisted by a jury for the DAM Preis for Architecture in Germany
2018. In order to make this selection, curators of the museum as
well as prominent architects and architecture critics visited
around 100 buildings that were nominated for this year's award. The
2018 edition of the annual presents the shortlisted works in
greater detail in addition to giving special recognition to the
winner of the DAM Preis. The Elbphilharmonie, being an exceptional
project, was not eligible for the award but receives a special
mention. A separate chapter is dedicated to buildings designed by
German architects abroad, two of which are presented in this issue.
The book also features two essays. One explores the model used in
Hamburg for allocating land, designed to support joint building
ventures. The other explores the current boom in architecture for
theatre and music venues.
Rural regions and their local architecture receive far too little
attention. This book aims to change that. The variety of realized
projects shows the hidden potential of these areas and how
architecture can contribute to a good life in the countryside. The
projects presented here include homes, workshops, agricultural
buildings, village stores, wineries, hotels, museums, chapels,
sports facilities or public buildings. The geographical focus is on
Germany, Austria and Switzerland, with individual projects from
Europe also included. By highlighting selected regions and places,
the book illustrates the overall changes in different area -
whether through shrinkage or growth. This attractive volume is
enhanced by essays on the realization process of projects, on
important building types, on infrastructure, and on what can be
learned from building in the countryside. The catalog portrays 65
projects by numerous renowned architecture offices, including
Bernardo Bader Architekten, Gion A. Caminada, Peter Haimerl, Jan
Roesler Architekten and Andy Senn Architekt.
Text in English & German. Johannes Peter Hoelzinger studied
architecture at the Stadelschule in Frankfurt am Main from 1954 to
1957. After a residency fellowship at the Deutsche Akademie Villa
Massimo in Rome he founded a "planning association for new forms of
the environment" in 1965 together with Zero artist Hermann
Goepfert, who has since died. One of the most successful results of
his work with Goepfert was a new design for the Schlosspark in
Karlsruhe on the occasion of the Bundesgartenschau in 1967, which
won a major German architectural prize, the Hugo-Haring-Preis. From
1991 until his retirement in 2002 Hoelzinger directed the art and
public-space course at the Akademie der bildenden Kunste in
Nuremberg. Individualistic and oppositional in comparison to other
post-World War II architectural achievements, the design of
Hoelzinger's buildings is very distinctive. The playful elements of
Postmodernism are as alien to his work as the functionalism of New
Building. Because of his association with Hermann Goepfert,
Hoelzinger is much more closely connected with the art scene of his
time. The integration of art and architecture is a unique feature
of his buildings. If we try to assign a category to this "object
architecture" (a term he coined himself), we will find less overlap
with architecture than with fine art. From the very beginning
Hoelzinger saw architecture as an artistic discipline. Light
kinetics offered him important new perspectives. Lighting design
and the resulting colour changes of white walls play a vital role
in his work.
In the 1920s, an unprecedented program of architectural and
cultural renewal was established in the German city of Frankfurt am
Main. This scheme became inscribed in cultural history under the
name "The New Frankfurt." Under the city's lord mayor, Ludwig
Landmann, and the head of the municipal planning and building
control office, Ernst May, modernity as a way of life took shape
there: As part of the housing and urban development initiative
decided in 1925, more than 10,000 new residential units were
planned. The Building Ministry's architects, recruited from home
and abroad, created pioneering work in many areas. Examples include
the typification of family-oriented flats, plans for affordable
apartments for those on low incomes, the first standard kitchen,
the industrial prefabrication of building shells, the construction
of schools designed around children's needs, and integrated urban
and green planning. In this book, four essays delve into the
cultural background of the scheme and provide illuminating insights
into the context of the work of its many actors. Richly illustrated
short texts highlight the most important topics, settlements, and
buildings, and provide an overview of the New Frankfurt phenomenon.
Each featured object includes the address and information on public
transport links, inviting readers on a tour of the New Frankfurt.
Bicycles as a means of transport in cities are playing an ever more
important role. The reasons are: reduction of motorcar traffic,
sustainable traffic planning, reduction of noise and exhaust
emissions, enhancement of the value of public space, healthier form
of transport, savings potential in national health services and
infrastructure expenditure. The book illustrates urban design ideas
and architectural projects which go far beyond purely redesigning
road layouts; its eight essays focus on the trend in urban design,
landscape design, and traffic planning, it introduces nine
exemplary bicycle traffic concepts in various cities (Barcelona,
Copenhagen, New York, and Oslo amongst others), and presents 28
forward-looking individual bicycle infrastructure projects.
Die Entwicklungen der Hochhaus-Architektur werden langst in grossem
Masse in China gepragt. Obgleich ungefahr jedes dritte Gebaude mit
einer Hoehe von mindestens 100 Metern eben dort entsteht, etabliert
sich die Typologie Hochhaus vermehrt in anderen Teilen der Welt. So
treiben mittlerweile europaische Stadte ihre Hochhausentwicklung
voran, und auch in Afrika entstehen sukzessive neue Turme. Der
Internationale Hochhaus Preis 2020 prasentiert 31 der spannendsten,
kurzlich fertiggestellten Hochhausprojekte, die sich weltweit durch
Nachhaltigkeit, Energie- und Kosteneffizienz sowie
nutzerfreundliche Gestaltung auszeichnen. Jedes dieser Projekte
wird anhand von Textmaterial, Fotos und Planen vorgestellt. Der
Internationale Hochhaus Preis wird alle zwei Jahre vergeben. Zu den
bisherigen Gewinner*innen zahlen u. a. Benjamin Romano (2018), BIG
(2016), Stefano Boeri (2014), Ingenhoven Architects (2012), WOHA
(2010) oder Foster and Partners (2008).
The Frankfurt old town between Dom and Roemer presents a tense and
politically charged construction history like no other area of the
city: starting with the onset of modernity, when new means of
transport required the forging of roads through the small-scale
building developments of the old town, to the housing development
during the New Frankfurt area, to the almost complete destruction
in the Second World War. The modern reconstruction plans in the
1950s and 1960s were fraught with disputes about whether the
architecture should be rebuilt or newly built as modern. In the
1970s, Frankfurt built the Technical Town Hall and the Historical
Museum in the style of brutalism on Roemerberg, followed in the
1980s by postmodern buildings and reconstructions. Since 2013,
other large areas of the historical old town are being newly
developed after the demolition of the Technical Town Hall. This
book provides an account of the constructional development of the
old town, based on representative buildings and construction
projects. A look at urban developments in Germany and Europe allow
a comparison of the specific Frankfurt situation. There is a
particular focus on the debate about the pros and cons of old town
reconstruction, as well as its significance for identity and
tradition.
