Bielefeld : Transcript, [2016]

257 pages : illustrations (some color), plans ; 23 cm.

Architecture ; volume 36

In a positive departure from modernism, the work of the art critic and urbanist Ludwig Hilberseimer offers schemata towards the design for the city itself: its 'mereological composition'. The resonance of parts unfolds to an alternative of a purely contrasting equation of form and content. It reminds us, that when the ground (gr.: logos) of the city is defined by its parts (gr.: meros), its architecture, the city in turn always also is part of the architecture as its desire. 'The Mereological City' introduces a mereological methodology and contributes to an ongoing discussion about an ecological form of urban design.
