| Zusammenfassung: | This book provides an intellectual history of the modernist 'minimum dwelling', exploring how early modernism saw mass housing as a primary vehicle for achieving the utopian transformation of society. It reappraises the often-overlooked 2nd and 3rd CIAM conferences (1929-31), addressing their engagement with the 'minimum dwelling' and revealing them both as milestones in the organisation's annals and as seminal moments in the history of interwar modernism. In 1929, an eclectic international group of avant-garde modernist architects, including Ernst May, Mart Stam, Walter Gropius and Le Corbusier, met in Frankfurt for the second instalment of the CIAM conferences. They discussed a design programme for cost-effective, good-quality housing, seeking new approaches and processes to maximize quality and functionality while ensuring affordability for the wider population. In exploring the meaning and form of the 'minimum dwelling', they also re-defined dwelling as the hub of a new way of living, proposing a revolutionary multi-scalar approach to urban design based on the concept of the Existenzminimum ('optimally minimal housing'). Despite the two conferences falling short of the organizer's expectations, and being overshadowed by later instalments, the participating architects sanctioned a semantic shift from minimum as bare necessity to a very different, aspirational, kind of minimalism - transforming the entire conversation on mass low-cost dwelling in design, social and ethical terms. Split into two parts, The Minimum Dwelling Revisited first takes a genealogical approach to explore the provenance of the concept of 'minimum dwelling' prior to the 2nd and 3rd CIAM conferences, it then traces the proceedings of the two conferences themselves. Addressing the origins of the 'minimum dwelling' concept but also its legacies, and serving as a corrective to the overemphasis on 4th CIAM conference and the Athens Charter, the book is essential reading for scholars researching urban design during the Interwar period |

It reappraises the often-overlooked 2nd and 3rd CIAM conferences (1929-31), addressing their engagement with the 'minimum dwelling' and revealing them both as milestones in the organisation's annals and as seminal moments in the history of interwar modernism. In 1929, an eclectic international group of avant-garde modernist architects, including Ernst May, Mart Stam, Walter Gropius and Le Corbusier, met in Frankfurt for the second instalment of the CIAM conferences. They discussed a design programme for cost-effective, good-quality housing, seeking new approaches and processes to maximize quality and functionality while ensuring affordability for the wider population. In exploring the meaning and form of the 'minimum dwelling', they also re-defined dwelling as the hub of a new way of living, proposing a revolutionary multi-scalar approach to urban design based on the concept of the Existenzminimum ('optimally minimal housing'). Despite the two conferences falling short of the organizer's expectations, and being overshadowed by later instalments, the participating architects sanctioned a semantic shift from minimum as bare necessity to a very different, aspirational, kind of minimalism - transforming the entire conversation on mass low-cost dwelling in design, social and ethical terms. Split into two parts, The Minimum Dwelling Revisited first takes a genealogical approach to explore the provenance of the concept of 'minimum dwelling' prior to the 2nd and 3rd CIAM conferences, it then traces the proceedings of the two conferences themselves. Addressing the origins of the 'minimum dwelling' concept but also its legacies, and serving as a corrective to the overemphasis on 4th CIAM conference and the Athens Charter, the book is essential reading for scholars researching urban design during the Interwar period Archivierung/Langzeitarchivierung gewährleistet FID XA-DE-BW pdager DE-16 Internationaler Kongress für Neues Bauen Körperschaft (DE-588)4710741-8 gnd rswk-swf International Congress for Modern Architecture 2 1929 Frankfurt, Main (DE-588)1013495-5 gnd rswk-swf International Congress for Modern Architecture (DE-588)137970-7 gnd rswk-swf International Congress for Modern Architecture 3. 1930 Brüssel (DE-588)1013496-7 gnd rswk-swf Geschichte 1928-1931 gnd rswk-swf Arbeiterklasse (DE-588)4068799-5 gnd rswk-swf Neues Bauen (DE-588)4129921-8 gnd rswk-swf Wohnungsbau (DE-588)4066772-8 gnd rswk-swf International Congresses for Modern Architecture / (2nd / 1929 / Frankfurt am Main, Germany) 653 International Congresses for Modern Architecture / (3rd / 1930 / Brussels, Belgium) Apartment houses Modern movement (Architecture) Working class / Housing Housing / Political aspects Arbeiterklasse (DE-588)4068799-5 s Wohnungsbau (DE-588)4066772-8 s Internationaler Kongress für Neues Bauen Körperschaft (DE-588)4710741-8 b International Congress for Modern Architecture (DE-588)137970-7 f International Congress for Modern Architecture 3. 1930 Brüssel (DE-588)1013496-7 f International Congress for Modern Architecture 2 1929 Frankfurt, Main (DE-588)1013495-5 f Neues Bauen (DE-588)4129921-8 s Geschichte 1928-1931 z DE-604 International Congress for Modern Architecture 2 1929 Frankfurt, Main Sonstige (DE-588)1013495-5 oth International Congress for Modern Architecture 3. 1930 Brüssel Sonstige (DE-588)1013496-7 oth Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe, PDF 978-1-3503-4619-2 Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe, EPUB 978-1-3503-4620-8 B:DE-89 V:DE-601 pdf/application https://www.gbv.de/dms/tib-ub-hannover/1847757960.pdf 2024-01-18 Inhaltsverzeichnis |
