Tools for Ideas
Architects today must position themselves within an extremely wide-ranging field of qualifications. This makes it all the more important to have a fresh introduction to the field that makes up one of their core competences, the field of design.

Weitgespannte Konstruktionen bestimmen in zunehmendem Maße den öffentlichen Raum der Stadt. Meinhard von Gerkan und Volkwin Marg haben seit ihrer Bürogründung im Jahr 1985 wie kaum ein anderes Team dazu Erfahrungen gesammelt: Parlament und Regierung, öffentlicher Austausch und Handel, Zentren für Kultur und Sport, Museen und Bibliotheken, Ausstellungs- und Fertigungshallen, Knotenpunkte des Verkehrs. Vom Reichstag in Berlin führt die Betrachtung über die Neue Messe Leipzig und die Berliner Olympia-Projekte bis zu den Flughäfen und der in Berlin und Stuttgart neu entfachten Konkurrenz des Schienenverkehrs.
