Albert Kahn is probably the most
important industrial architect of the 20th century. With his factory for
the Ford T-models, designed for mass production, he found himself at
the beginning of modern industrial architecture. His industrial
buildings inspired the architects of European Modernism. They were the
developments became the guiding principle for the New Building movement
up until today.
The unrivalled monograph with its numerous
photographs, plan layouts, site plans, and virtual 3D models
comprehensively documents the buildings of Albert Kahn, which he was
able to construct in a very short time due to his system-based working
method - in the USA but also in the Soviet Union, Brazil, Sweden,
France, China, Japan, and Australia.
