Synopsis :

This study deals with buildings of the 20th century in Austria and those designed by Austrian architects abroad. Architectural innovation, originality and distinction, be it in concept, design, technical construction or spatial quality, are the hallmarks of the 30 main projects discussed here in detail, together with a further 30 projects that are briefly illustrated to set the contemporary scene in context. The selected buildings are treated in categories and themes, such as cultural complexes, residential buildings, technical or industrial structures, ecological design, urban design and revitalization. The themes are accompanied by essays and short commentaries by M. Sorkin, P. Allison, K. Ruedi, Y. Simeoforidis, O. Kapfinger, W. Chramosta, R. Biswas and H. Boeckl. These contributors place modern Austrian architecture in an international context.
