Alpine Architecture

’’This proposal may seem adventurous and even pretentious, but at the risk of being chided as immodest and utopian, it must be made at least once. It should merely clarify in a concrete form the tendencies that encourage one to build high and should not be looked at as an end in itself, but rather as a suggestion that brings us closer to the realization of what was identified previously and to the fulfillment of further aims...
The ultimate is always quiet and empty... The cathedral was the container of all the souls that prayed in this way; and it always remains empty and pure – it is ‘‘dead.’’ The ultimate task of architecture is to be quiet and absolutely turned away from all daily rituals for all time...’’

(Re)building the Alps? 100 years from the publication of “Alpine Architektur” by Bruno Taut / (Ri)costruire le Alpi? A 100 anni dalla pubblicazione di “Alpine Architektur” di Bruno Taut

Bruno Taut’s Alpine Architektur was published in 1919. The book was written during the First World War, against a background of mass massacres and destruction. By placing himself “above the fray”, Taut turned his gaze towards the mountains and their peaks as a free area in which to express the constructive and edifying potentialities of the human being where human community could reconcile. A hundred years later, the book poses a series of huge problems, and involve many types of scholars.
