The correspondence between Richard and Dione Neutra recounts the difficult early years and the developing philosophy of a man who would change the look of architecture But as Thomas S Hines Neutras biographer makes clear the book does far more than trace the development of two artistic young people What you have here is not only valuable material about the making of an architectural career and of a salutary and interesting marriage but documents of European and American social and cultural history in the early twentieth century The letters and diary entries describe the period that followed World War I with the unbelievable inflation in Germany and the Great Depression in AmericanbspThe settings range from imperial Vienna to imperial Japan and from the nightmare of Ellis Island to a dreamhouse in Los Angeles Along the way are fascinating glimpses of and comments from such architects as Gropius Mendelsohn Schindler and Wright that further document Richard Neutras concepts approaches and attitudes his frustrations and achievementsnbspRunning as a charming counterpoint to these intellectual themes is the story of a romance that was to endure for half a century for many of the letters are first and foremost love letters that chronicle the Neutras meeting courtship and first ten years of marriage The book is generously illustrated by both personal photographs and photographs of Neutras work

Richard Neutra in Berlin traces his success back to the Zehlendorf housing project of 1923 where he defined his strong and experimental modernist style WallpaperMention of the name Richard Neutra conjures the lightflooded bungalows that characterize the architectural style of the West Coast around Los Angeles Because he is so closely associated with Los Angeles it is sometimes overlooked that Neutras career actually began in the BerlinZehlendorf neighborhood in the early 1920s And yet these houses in Zehlendorf represent a fascinating phase in Neutras 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 lesserknown buildings already hint at elements that Neutra would take up again in his future projects Richard Neutra in Berlin allows for a longoverdue rightful reassessment of Neutras early works Alongside historical sources it collects countless new and unpublished documents about the houses and their first residents Austrianborn architect Richard Neutra 18921970 finished his architectural studies in the midst of the First World War and worked in Switzerland and Germany for a few years before moving to the United States in 1923 Settling in California after working briefly for Frank Lloyd Wright Neutra became identified with a West Coast variant on midcentury modern architecture rigorously geometric buildings designed in the International Style of Neutras European training with an open airy flexible atmosphere suitable to Neutras new California home

The reputation of Richard Neutra 18921970 is founded on his finely executed and superbly landscaped domestic buildings Born and educated in Vienna where he was influenced by the leading European architects notably Adolph Loos Neutra developed the intense dislike of ornament that was to characterize his work He emigrated to the US in 1923 and in 1926 established a practice in California where the majority of his buildings are to be found His early fame rests on a technical tour de force the Lovell house in Los Angeles 1928 featuring a prefabricated steel skeleton and suspended balconies built on a steeply sloping site His pioneering use of new techniques and materials was further encouraged by the Dutch industrialist C H van der Leeuw whose financial assistance led to the construction of the VD L Research house Los Angeles 1933 but later when the use of such strategic materials as steel was banned during the war neutral was forced to revert to for example redwood natural stone common bricks and glass High highly individual style is characterized by the adoption of plate glass for exterior walls combined with overhanding eaves outrigged columns and integrated pools and by the exploitation of the subtropical California vegetation to create privacy Although he designed a variety of largescale buildings ranging from the California Military Academy 1936 to public housing office buildings churches and schools it was in his treatment of domestic buildings among them the Nesbitt house Brentwood 1942 the Moore house in the Ojai Valley 1952 and the Kaufmann house Palm Springs 194647 and in his brilliant adaptation of design to natural surroundings that Neutras outstanding achievement lay With 86 plates 14 in color 28 plans and drawings This is part of The Library of Contemporary Architects which is devoted to the great 20th century architects who helped to create a modern architectural idiom
