PASS-STÜCKE: Bauen im historischen Kontext - Krekeler Architekten
Pass-Stücke (lit. “fitting pieces”) represent a culture of preservation and repair, of skilled craftsmanship, and of the sensitive conversion of historic fabric. Whether it’s Schloss Charlottenburg (Charlottenburg Palace) in Berlin, the Deichtorhallen cultural complex in Hamburg, or the historic city hall in Goslar, Krekeler Architekten see every project as a unique space with its own history, atmosphere, and aesthetic—and its own requirements and possibilities. The starting point for their designs is a keen sense of context that allows the reimagining and sensitive reuse of historic architecture. Using thirty projects spanning a period of thirty years and commentary from members of the firm, this volume reveals the internationally active architecture office’s unique approach.

  • Offers a new perspective on both famous monuments and new discoveries
  • Provides thirty examples of best practice for the reuse of existing buildings—from Brandenburg to Bucharest
  • Includes an afterword by the architecture critic Jürgen Tietz
