Amazon.com description: Product Description:
Josef Frank (1885â1967) ranks among Europeâs most significant architects of the twentieth century, and his designs for furniture and textiles have made him one of the eminent figures of modernist interior design. Though there have been many studies of Frankâs architecture previously, Josef FrankâSpaces is the first comprehensive book to look specifically at Frankâs single-family houses.
Architects Mikael Bergquist and Olof Michélsen explore the evolution of Frankâs designs for single-family homes over the years, and they investigate the influences that shaped his work, such as Adolf Loosâs âspatial planâ concept, Le Corbusierâs ideas, and Hermann Muthesiusâs groundbreaking book The English House. The authors also look at Frankâs architectural concepts of movement and his use of stairs in residential buildings. The book also includes an in-depth examination of six of Frankâs houses, including both built projectsâ the Villas Claëson and Wehtje in Falsterbo, Sweden, and Villa Beer in Viennaâand unrealized onesâHouse for Vienna XIII, House MS in Los Angeles, and Fantasy House 9 (Accidental House). This section includes images and plans of each of the houses and a close analysis of their specific characteristics. A complete catalog of Frankâs single-family houses rounds out the book.
Featuring new material and many previously unpublished images and plans, Josef FrankâSpaces will be the authoritative reference to this renowned architectâs contributions to the design of residential dwellings.
