Two architects have largely escaped notice in literature on the reconstruction of postwar (West) Berlin, despite their long-lasting legacy in shaping its architectural fabric: Paul Schwebes and Hans Schoszberger, who have worked together in a joint office since 1956. Several of their buildings still stand as emblematic of Berlin's City West, shaping its urban flair between Kurfürstendamm and Tauentzienstra e, Ernst-Reuter-Platz and Breitscheidplatz, in Budapester Stra e and in other districts. Reconstructing over 160 projects from Berlin's pre- and postwar years, mainly from the tertiary sector with a smaller number of residential buildings, the volume also uncovers the political and economic conditions that allowed this architecture to become symbols of a new era and an open society after 1945.
