Summary:
The name Behnisch stands for an architecture characterised by transparency and ease with a distinctly non-historicising attitude. The aesthetics and philosophy of this tradition have been carried on in impressive ways by Behnisch. Behnisch & Partner. Today it is represented by offices in both Stuttgart and Los Angeles. The architectural concepts developed by Behnisch. Behnisch & Partner place particular emphasis on occupant and user-friendliness, technological sophistication as well as economic sustainability. This book is the first comprehensive and representative selection of the practice's international buildings, projects and competitions over the last fourteen years, and includes the Institute for Forestry and Nature Research in Wageningen (The Netherlands), the North Cerman State Clearing Bank in Hanover (Germany), the Genzyme Center in Cambridge (USA), the Centre for Cellular and Biomolecular Research in Toronto (Canada) and the new building for the World Intellectual Property Organization in Geneva (Switzerland).
