Designer as AuthorThe Brandenburg Culture Foundation has a new home for its art museum within one of the most beautiful power stations of the Twenties.
The listed brick building -originally designed by Werner Issel- has been carefully converted by Anderhalten Architekten to provide excellent exhibition spaces.
A new book that explores the historical background, describes the building process and presents the final result has just been published by Jovis Verlag.
SV Associates were asked to design the book after successfully completing the museum sign system earlier this year.
The designer Nick Kapica assumed the role of author, developing the initial concept, selecting the content and providing the structure for Falk Jaeger to write the texts.
All of the large format photography is by Ursula Böhmer who documented the entire building process.
The book has been designed for a wide audience and not solely architects.
This is the fourth book by SV Associates where the designers are the authors and it once again shows they can produce excellent results.
The first section contains images printed in two Pantone inks, Black 7 and Cool grey 11 on un-coated paper, the building process is illustrated in full colour on un-coated paper and the final section is of full colour images from the completed building on coated paper.
