Zustand: Sehr gut. 120 S. Einband leicht berieben. - 'Form does not follow function, function follows vision' -Frederick Kiesler. In 1991 seventeen architects were invited to submit plans for the regeneration of Potsdamer Platz and Leipziger Platz, an enormous area at the centre of the reunited city of Berlin. This extraordinary and beautiful book documents the response of the British architect, William Alsop, collaborating with the artist Bruce McLean, a response in which radical ideas are given new architectural forms-Underlying the final scheme are a range of new possibities for the city - streets as objects in their own right; a continuous landscape running between, beneath and through buildings; buildings that are themselves responsive to changing seasons and uses; a new kind of planning, layered and ambiguous. The ideas which form the Berlin project are both specific to the site and at the same time universal in their implications.
