Abstract

Leberecht Migge is one of the best known – and least known garden designers of classical modernism. As a protagonist or even originator of landscape architecture in tune with innovative and socially involved building, he promoted that every household should have a garden. All his design work was deemed lost until recently, so that his oeuvre was accessible only in publications. In a spectacular discovery, the Archive of Swiss Landscape Architecture has found 322 sketches, drawings and plans of all kinds by Leberecht Migge, comprising also hitherto unknown designs for private gardens. A relevant selection of this original material is published here for the first time, in bestquality presentation. The volume is rounded off by an assessment of the significance of these designs.

Abstract

Die 2019 erstmals publizierten neu entdeckten Originalpläne erlauben einen neuen Blick auf Leberecht Migge als einen bis heute aktuellen Gartenarchitekten. Seine ebenso schönen wie wegweisenden Entwürfe für Haus- und Villengärten, Privatparks und später Volksparks und Sozialsiedlungen werden hier in ihrer Bedeutung für die Geschichte und die Gegenwart der Landschafts- und Gartengestaltung analysiert und neu bewertet. Der Band ist mit einer Vielzahl der Pläne aus dem bedeutenden Archivfund illustriert. The newly discovered original plans, published for the first time in 2019, allow a new view at Leberecht Migge as a garden architect who is still relevant today. His equally beautiful and groundbreaking designs for house and villa gardens, private parks and, later, public parks and social housing estates, are analyzed and reassessed in terms of their significance for the history and present of landscape and garden design. The volume is illustrated with a large number of the plans from the important archival find.
