Juergen Riehm’s Book List 13 books and 0 comments
This list focuses on a selection of artists and architects that have inspired me throughout my career. While I was studying architecture at the Städelschule Academy of Fine Arts, there was a strong exchange between the students and faculty in all of the various artistic fields. This interdisciplinary collaboration is one of the defining features of 1100 Architect’s work. We have designed residences and studios for artists including Jasper Johns, Roy Lichtenstein, and Ross Bleckner; designed the home of the Robert Mapplethorpe Foundation; and integrated works of art by James Turrell and Anselm Baumann into our designs. Working for and with these artists has broadened our understanding of the perception of space and continues to have a profound influence on our architecture.

Rudofsky’s insights into indigenous building practices, or “architecture without architects,” are a reminder that there is much we can learn about design by opening our eyes to the world around us.
Prouvé is the master of optimization of structure and its expression in architecture.

I admire Zumthor’s humanistic approach to architecture. His works have a tactile and experiential quality.
