Focusing on 30 residential buildings from the postmodern era of West Berlin in the 1980s.
Anyone who prefers to view postmodernism—when referring to architecture—as an epoch looks with enthusiasm to the western part of Berlin in the 1980s. Nowhere else is there a greater density of buildings to which this label can be attached. Veritable architectural manifestos that shaped the cityscape from then on can be found there.
The city and the time allowed for seemingly contradictory pieces of architecture, but what unites the residential buildings above all is the vehement artistic desire of their master builders. Thirty of these buildings are being re-photographed around thirty years after their creation. Floor plans document the structural similarities and differences independently of the architectural means of expression.
Postmodernism in Berlin by Claudia Kromrei explores these artistic and architectural landmarks, offering a fresh perspective through contemporary photography and detailed analysis.
