Abstract

A successful exhibition is a well-balanced mix of communication, knowledge transfer, interaction, adventure, and contemplation. This widely popular handbook, which has already gone through multiple printings, offers a concise presentation of the principal phases of an exhibition's genesis with striking examples from the design practice of the authors. Topics covered are conception and design, presentation and staging, representation and education, text and graphics, typography and layout, as well as light and lighting. The central design steps are illustrated with sketches, diagrams, plans, elevations, simulations, technical drawings, working models, and photographs. Bertron Schwarz Frey (Berlin and Ulm) is one of Germany's leading exhibition design firms. Eine gelungene Ausstellung ist das ausgewogene Resultat von Kommunikation, Wissensvermittlung, Interaktion, Erlebnis und Kontemplation. Dieses erfolgreiche, schon mehrmals nachgedruckte, nunmehr aktualisierte Handbuch erläutert in knapper Form die entscheidenden Entstehungsphasen von Ausstellungen anhand markanter Beispiele aus der Gestaltungspraxis der Autoren. Themen sind Konzeption und Entwurf, Präsentation und Inszenierung, Darstellung und Vermittlung, Text und Grafik, Typografie und Layout, Licht und Beleuchtung. Die grundlegenden Schritte im Gestaltungsprozess werden mit Skizzen, Diagrammen, Plänen, Wandabwicklungen, Simulationen, Darstellungen, Arbeitsmodellen und Fotos veranschaulicht.

Abstract

THE WEISSENHOFSIEDLUNG in Stuttgart is a housing development designed by the leading architects of the modern movement for the 1927 exhibition Die Wohnung (The Home), organized by the Deutscher Werkbund. Houses and apartments were built, and their interiors designed in detail, by a roster of great names: Peter Behrens, Victor Bourgeois, Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret, Richard Docker, Josef Frank, Walter Gropius, Ludwig Hilberseimer, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, J.J. P. Oud, Hans Poelzig, Adolf Rading, Hans Scharoun, Adolf Schneck, Mart Stam, Bruno Taut, and Max Taut. The result was a unique urban environment where it was possible to see-and live in-modern architecture as it was meant to be and on a human scale. Over the years the Weissenhofsiedlung fell into neglect and decay, and at one stage it came close to being demolished. But now those houses that survived the Second World War and the postwar period have been restored, reconstructed, and placed under protection as historic monuments. Years of detective work, using the papers of the architects concerned, the records in the Stuttgart city archives, and interviews with contemporary witnesses, have enabled Karin Kirsch to assemble the first truly comprehensive account of this pioneer demonstration of modern building, from first concept to final realization. She gives a lively account of the project in narrative, in documents, and in a large number of previously unpublished photographs. In the process, she has been able to settle many problematic issues, including the parts played in the enterprise by Adolf Loos (whose intentions came to nothing), Paul Bonatz, and Paul Schnitthenner, and by the Stuttgart city authorities. The theme of the 1927 exhibition was "The Home." And so an essential part of this definitive study of the Weissenhofsiedlung consists of the surviving installation plans, furniture designs, and photographs of finished interiors, ready to be lived in.
