Since the reunification of Germany, the federal government has constructed a large number of groundbreaking buildings for legislative bodies, museums and other cultural institutions, for technology and science, or for defense.
This book is an appreciation of the extraordinary quality of the many different types of buildings funded by the federal government and other (co)sponsors. Extensive texts and photos document the approximately eighty buildings, which, since the reunification, have either been constructed or completely renovated in Berlin, the individual states, and abroad. Essays by renowned architectural critics and interviews with architects supplement this comprehensive, representative assessment of public architecture since 1990.
