Alexander Brenner: Houses

by Gottfried Knapp

Brenner's villas can be seen and experienced as three-dimensional works of art, lucid sculptures to live in, thoroughly modelled down to the last detail. The geometrical sculptural effect is achieved outside by the horizontals and verticals of their architectural structure. What is completely unique is the design logic Brenner deploys to make the cubism of the external forms impact on the interior, applying it to everyday utility objects in the living rooms, kitchen and bathroom.
