Beschreibung
An outstanding example of post-war architecture, the School of Fine Arts in Kassel, designed by Paul Posenenske, is characterized by its differentiated spatial structure, high degree of variability, and an atmosphere of lightness. This comprehensive monograph, featuring previously unpublished documents, plans, and photographs, traces its development-from the architect's biographical influences and the institutional and cultural-political context, to the design and construction process and an analysis of the project, completed in 1968, including the associated furniture and lighting. The subsequent history of its use is followed by a sketch of possible futures-from the challenges of the planned energy-efficient renovation to dystopian visions.

Monograph of a building with unpublished historical plans and photos

Unusual perspectives on questions such as construction organization, hacking and dystopian futures

Graphic design based on the architect's ideas and echoing the building itself
