Publisher's Synopsis
In Luxembourg′s new bank district on the Kirchberg Plateau, Wilhelm Kücker′s Bayerische Landesbank stands apart with its unique character and charm. This building is documented for the first time in the present volume.
Manfred Sack provides a brief, enlightening essay, a spirited introduction to the building designed by this "uncompromisingly modern" architect. After his Museum of Supulchral Culture built in 1992, Kücker has now designed a second remarkable building. The clarity and distinctiveness of the forms, the constructive elegance, the strongly individual but harmonizing colors, and other numerous details lend the building a striking allure.
Waltraud Krase′s photographs beautifully supplement the text.
