Stefan Behnisch and partners have gained an international reputation as well as being one of the most successful architectural practices in Germany. Taking up the formal tradition of the 'Stuttgart School' with its open, transparent and atmospherically convivial buildings, the office's projects are characterised by a consistent ecological focus. The aim is to create energy-efficient and sustainable architecture, thus relieving the resource burden on current and future generations. This volume from the "Port Folio" series presents all the important international projects by Behnisch Architekten from 1996 to the present day. Lavish photographs and plans document their unique architectural language. A detailed text by Falk Jaeger and an interview with the architects provide additional insights into the practice's philosophy and working method.
