AEG Turbine Factory
Peter Behrens
- Outline
- This is a work from the dawn of modern architecture that embodies the ideals of the German Craftsmen's League. While retaining the neoclassical design and materials of the Greek temple style, the aim was to express the application of new technology. The steel columns line the sides of the building, and the distinctive pediment shape directly reflects the interior truss structure.
