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 She gives a lively account of the project in narrative, in documents, and in a large number of previously unpublished photographs.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.

At the beginning of the twentieth century, German artist Richard Riemerschmid (1868-1957) was known as a symbolist painter and, by the advent of World War I, had become an important modern architect. This, however, the first English-language book on Riemerschmid, celebrates his understudied legacy as a designer of everyday objects--furniture, tableware, clothing--that were imbued with an extraordinary sense of vitality and even personality. Freyja Hartzell makes a case for the importance of Riemerschmid's designed objects in the development of modern design--and for the power of everyday things to change the way we live our lives, understand history, and design our future. Hartzell offers for the first time an interpretive history of Riemerschmid's design practice embedded in a fresh examination of modernism told by the objects themselves. Hartzell explores Riemerschmid's early drawings, paintings, and prints; his interiors and housewares, which represent a modernist shift from exclusive image to accessible object; his designs for women's clothing; his immensely popular wooden furniture; his serially produced ceramics and their appeal to German nationalism of the period; and his complex and compelling pattern designs for textiles and wallpapers, the only part of his creative practice that spanned his entire career. Riemerschmid, Hartzell writes, was at his most inventive, playful, and free when designing things for everyday use. His uniquely designed forms allow us to recognize the utilitarian object not just as a tool but as an individual being--a thing with a soul.
