Isa Melsheimer, Kontrastbedürfnis, need for contrast

More about the book

Werner Kallmorgen’s plea for a need for contrast in the design, observation, and experience of buildings is the starting point for Melsheimer’s artistic excursions into the architectural and urban culture of Hamburg. Apart from the Ernst Barlach Haus Isa Melsheimer wittily trains her sights on more of Kallmorgen’s striking buildings, sounding out their functional architecture and sometimes dysfunctional history.
