Midcomfort

Midcomfort is the rediscovery of the reform architecture of the 20th century and simultaneously a rejection of a celebrated avant-garde with its unreflective belief in progress. Beyond the ideology of enforced novelty, Midcomfort draws from the tradition of residential building and focuses on the needs and desires of the inhabitants. The fundamental principles of construction that endure and function even after decades are presented as a perspective for future-proof residential architecture. Through historical and contemporary examples, the book demonstrates that a continuous development leads to aesthetically and functionally lasting residential buildings of the highest quality. The new edition has been reviewed, corrected, and supplemented with new images.
