Industriekultur: Peter Behrens and the AEG, 1907-1914
Description:
Most histories of 20th century design cite Peter Behrens's seminal influence on three of his former protégés-Gropius, Mies, and Le Corbusier-and mention the turbine factory and arc-lamp he designed for the German electric company, the AEG. Now the full story of the extraordinary collaboration between Peter Behrens and the AEG is disclosed in this extensive account of his industrial, graphic, and architectural designs. Illustrated with 600 halftones, 31 line drawings, and 53 fourcolor plates, and augmented by substantial essays, it is one of the most complete documentations of any designers contribution to industry that has been assembled in the modern period.
