  1. Thank you for posting these, particularly the two of projects by Rudolf Fränkel, especially the one of the Leuchtturm, a little-know project by him built on the site north of the Bahnhof Friedrichstraße where Mies' proposed skyscraper would have been built.

    1. Berlin was a giant experiment those years.The Weimar Republic as a whole in fact. The Bauhaus is just an example.
