Gustav Maier. Sponsor of the young Albert Einstein
Document from the year 2023 in the subject Biographies, , language: English, abstract: Albert Einstein is one of the most known scientists. Therefore, it is surprising that one of his fatherly protectors, who had helped him to get enrolled at the prestigious polytechnical school (ETH) at Zurich, is poorly known: it is the authors great-grandfather Gustav Maier. He was born at Ulm, Germany, in 1844 and, together with his spouse Regina Friedlaender, they were good friends of Hermann and Pauline Einstein-Koch. Thus, it was natural that the Einsteins reached out to Gustav Maier, meanwhile installed at Zurich, for assisting the 16-year-old Albert in getting his education. Indeed, the Einsteins ha...

Einführung in das Entwerfen
Diese Einführung in das Entwerfen behandelt zunächst die Vielzahl der Einflüsse, die auf den Entwurf einwirken und ihn bestimmen. Danach wird der Entwurfsprozess aufgefächert und in seinen einzelnen Schritten anschaulich und nachvollziehbar dargestellt. Im ersten Teil „Entwurfspragmatik“ geht es um die unveränderlichen Gegebenheiten des Ortes, der Baugesetze und der Normen sowie den Fakten der Baugeschichte. Dann vermittelt der Teil „Entwurfssystematik“ typologisch das Wissen um die Architekturelemente, aus denen sich das System Architektur zusammensetzt. Schließlich behandelt dann die „Entwurfsmethodik“ den Entwurfsprozess als strukturierte Abfolge von Entwurfsschritten.
John Fowler, Benjamin Baker, Forth Bridge
When the Forth Bridge opened on 4 March 1890 it was the longest railway bridge in the world and the first large structure made of steel. Crossing the wide Firth of Forth east of Edinburgh, it represents one of the greatest engineering triumphs of Victorian Britain, man's victory over the intractable topography of land and water. Not surprisingly, such a vigorous rebuff of the natural order was condemned at the time by those late Victorians who resisted the march of technology, and William Morris described the Bridge as the »supremest specimen of all ugliness«. In response, Benjamin Baker insisted that its beauty lay in its functional elegance. Contrasting his masterpiece with the only comparable structure of the period, the Eiffel Tower, he concluded: »The Eiffel Tower is a foolish piece of work, ugly, illproportioned and of no real use to anyone.

Egon Eiermann
When the German Embassy in Washington was completed in 1964, the architectural critic for the Washington Post wrote that the express aim of those commissioning the building had been to make an architectural statement that would embody the spirit of the young German democracy.
