Hermann Czech, a renowned architect and theorist from Austria, was born in 1936. His influence extends far beyond his work as a designing architect, encompassing furniture, interiors, and exhibitions. Czech's writings on architectural theory and his role as the editor and translator of architectural classics have earned him widespread admiration. This comprehensive monograph, the first English edition of the only full monograph on Czech to date, goes beyond a mere presentation of his architecture's buildings and projects.
The first part delves into the connections between Czech's work and the approaches of Viennese modernism. The second part explores Czech's biography and career trajectory, analyzing the contemporary influences shaping his thinking and designs. The third part showcases selected buildings and unrealized projects, while also presenting Czech's numerous references and underlying reflections.
To complement this volume, an extensive index of Czech's buildings, projects, and writings, an essay by philosopher Elisabeth Nemeth on the relationship between architecture and philosophy in Czech's work, and an introduction by architectural historian Liane Lefaivre have been included. This book is a valuable resource for scholars, architects, and enthusiasts interested in Czech's remarkable contributions to the field of architecture.
