Hilberseimer and MIES: the metr or poli as a garden city

Monograph that reflects on the work of the German architect MIES van der Rohe (1886-1969) and his colleague, the architect, urban planner and educator Ludwig Hilberseimer (1885-1967), an author strangely unnoticed in the history of architecture. Hilberseimer's innovative urban planning theories are studied, integrating them into the thought of MIES van der Rohe, thus helping to understand the latter's work and ideas. 277 p.: ill., photo, b/w, 22x24 cm, paperback
