Swiss sensibility : the culture of architecture in Switzerland
Nicht nur die Schweizer Pritzker-Preisträger Peter Zumthor und Herzog & de Meuron, auch andere Architekten prägen die zeitgenössische Architekturszene. Das Buch dokumentiert 25 Gebäude in der Schweiz, entworfen von 16 einflussreichen Schweizer Architekten. Die Bandbreite der Projekte reicht vom dichten urbanen Raum bis ins alpine Umfeld; sie verbinden Ingenieurs- und Handwerkskunst mit traditionellen Materialien und moderner Bautechnik. Großformatige Fotos machen Proportionen, Materialien und Details der Bauten erlebbar. Mit dem Blick von innen wie auch von außen analysieren vier Autoren die Vielfalt der Schweizer Baukultur sowie die Grundlagen ihrer hohen architektonischen Qualität. In einem ausführlichen Interview gibtPeter Zumthor Einblick in seine Auffassung der Baukunst.
