| book description |

Villa Wolf in Guben (now Gubin), built between 1925 and 1927, was Ludwig Mies van der Roheâ€™s first decidedly modern building. The residential building was destroyed at the end of the Second World War and in the immediate post-war period. The building practice of Mies van der Rohe â€“ who is internationally known for his visionary glass skyscrapers and concrete buildings â€“ remained conventional for a long time. With Villa Wolf, he presented a radical reinterpretation of the upper-class residential building: an open, diagonal sequence of rooms on the garden side, with the cubically-towered areas of the utility rooms and bedrooms next to it. The reception of the building was overshadowed by the great success of Mies van der Roheâ€™s successor buildings, such as the German Pavilion in Barcelona (1928â€“1929) and Villa Tugendhat in Brno (1929â€“1930). This volume presents the history of Villa Wolf in Gubin and documents the recent excavation of the basement as well as the graphic reconstruction as a prerequisite for the buildingâ€™s reconstruction.
