Rural regions and their local architecture receive far too little attention. This book aims to change that. The variety of realized projects shows the hidden potential of these areas and how architecture can contribute to a good life in the countryside. The projects presented here include homes, workshops, agricultural buildings, village stores, wineries, hotels, museums, chapels, sports facilities or public buildings. The geographical focus is on Germany, Austria and Switzerland, with individual projects from Europe also included. By highlighting selected regions and places, the book illustrates the overall changes in different area û whether through shrinkage or growth. This attractive volume is enhanced by essays on the realization process of projects, on important building types, on infrastructure, and on what can be learned from building in the countryside.
The catalog portrays 65 projects by numerous renowned architecture offices, including Bernardo Bader Architekten, Gion A. Caminada, Peter Haim
