JAEGGI, ANNEMARIE., Fagus: Industrial Culture from Werkbund to Bauhaus...
USA:, Princeton Architectural Press,, 2000.. First edition. Hardcover. Condition: Book: Fine. The main building of the Fagus shoe factorie in Alfeld, Germany, is a seminal structure in the history of modern architecture. Designed by Bauhaus founder Walter Gropius and Adolf Meyer, the factory achieved an innovative optical effect in a curtain of glass: the walls seemed to wanish. This book is the culmination of the author's exhaustive research in the Fagus factory archives and the Bauhaus archives. Original correspondence, blueprints, company letterhead, advertisements, and over 100 archival photographs in black-and-white - many never published before - make this book not only the definitive history of the Fagus factory but also a beautiful document of modernist architecture. 152.p. in total.
Offered for GBP 8.00 = appr. US$ 15.92 by: Amwell Book Company - Book number: 8572
