Edited by Alexander Brenner Architects

Few architecture firms in Europe have addressed the villa as a building type as consistently as Alexander Brenner Architects. The studio is widely known for designs that are characterised by plastic-geometric facades often resembling constructivist tableaux. A house’s interior, kitchen, cupboards, and other built-in furniture are attended to with the same care for detail as its exterior. Corresponding gardens with soft, curved, sensual forms surround, and contrast, Brenner’s cubic architectural sculptures. This new book follows up on two successful previous volumes published in 2011 and 2015. It features six villas and houses realised 2015-2022, including the architect’s own home in Stuttgart, the Brenner Research House. The volume includes photography by Zooey Brwon, as well as plans, drawings and further images, plus an essay and informative text on the projects by Alexander Brenner, and an appraisal of his oeuvre by architecture publicist Holger Reiners.
