Rolf Muhlethaler
The architect Rolf Mühlethaler attracted attention in 1987 with his studio building for the artist Rolf Iseli. This book volume is a collection of some of the more recent buildings and projects, including the latest project: the extension of a school building in Leimbach, a strong yet simple response to the extremely complex parameters. Text in English and German.
Great Spires
Great spires designed in the Gothic era continue to dominate the skylines of many European cities even today. With their great height and complex detailing, spires like those of Chartres, Strasbourg, Vienna, and Antwerp, and their more recently completed cousins at Cologne and Ulm, rank among the most fantastic products of the medieval architectural imagination. This book traces the development of this major monument type from its pre-Gothic roots through its post-medieval reception, with particular emphasis on the flowering of spire construction in the late Middle Ages. Along the way, it explores the complex layering of religious and political significations in these ambitious projects.

Doch auch das Pfarrhaus ist in den Sog der modernen Welt gekommen: Lebensgewohnheiten und Partnerschaftsformen haben sich verändert, der Pfarrberuf wird anders wahrgenommen. Zudem zwingen schwindende Finanzen Kirchgemeinden dazu, den Erhalt und die Nutzung ihrer Liegenschaften zu überprüfen. *Der vorliegende Band bietet Informationen und Orientierungen zur gegenwärtigen Situation. Unterschiedliche Erfahrungen und Standpunkte kommen zur Sprache, das Pfarrhaus wird aus historischer und kultureller Sicht be...
