Architektur in Niederösterreich im 20. Jahrhundert nach Friedrich Achleitner

Friedrich Achleitner’s guide to architecture This guide documents more than a century of architecture in the Lower Austria region, based on Friedrich Achleitner’s influential multi-volume Österreichische Architektur im 20. Jahrhundert (Austrian Architecture in the 20th Century). The editors have continued Achleitner’s unfinished work by drawing on documents bequeathed to his estate. This foundational volume examines the multifaceted architectural landscape of Lower Austria in the 20th century on the basis of ca. 2,300 buildings and projects, which are arranged both topographically and typologically. Not only prominent buildings, but also lesser-known architectural examples are presented in typologies. The book includes essays by well-known authors on Achleitner, his primary research, the genesis of the architectural guide, and architecture in Lower Austria. - Architecture in Lower Austria: a thorough and systematic topographical and typological overview
- Key information on approx. 2,300 buildings and projects; catalog of sites and planners; numerous plans and original photographs by Friedrich Achleitner
- With contributions by Ingrid Holzschuh / Monika Platzer, Franziska Leeb, and others
