Because he is so closely associated with Los Angeles, it is sometimes overlooked that Neutra's career actually began in the Berlin-Zehlendorf neighborhood in the early 1920s. And yet these houses in Zehlendorf represent a fascinating phase in Neutra's work. With their complex color schemes and extravagant interior design, they reveal themselves to be more than just experimental and radically innovative designs. Indeed, these lesser-known buildings already hint at elements that Neutra would take up again in his future projects. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eRichard Neutra in Berlin\u003c\/i\u003e allows for a long-overdue, rightful reassessment of Neutra's early works.

Settling in California after working briefly for Frank Lloyd Wright, Neutra became identified with a West Coast variant on mid-century modern architecture: rigorously geometric buildings designed in the International Style of Neutra's European training, with an open, airy, flexible atmosphere suitable to Neutra's new California home.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 304\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.3 x 10.7 x 9.2 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 23, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44424288043143,"sku":"9783775745154","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/fuFgtlbscZ9783775745154.webp?v=1775641833","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/richard-neutra-the-story-of-the-berlin-houses-1920-1924-hardcover","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
