Development of Architecture in Central and Eastern Europe
Architectural History
Berlin, Prague, Moscow
This report is an investigation into the development of recent architecture in Central and Eastern Europe in light of the social, political and economic changes that occurred after the dissolution of the Communist Bloc. Specifically it consists of an analysis of recent architecture in Moscow, Prague and Berlin and covers the work of both domestic and international architects.
Through a first-hand experience of most buildings the report aims to discover which influences and traditions had motivated the architects and which external forces impacted on their work and the role they have played in contributing to the creation of new civic, cultural, national and political identities.
