Smoke and Mirrors (eBook, PDF)

The Yenidze Cigarette Factory, Dresden

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The Yenidze Cigarette Factory of 1909 was constructed as an industrial, architectural object that advertised Dresden as a center for the tobacco trade. Born from a unique client-architect relationship between Hugo Zietz and Martin Hammitzsch, the factory's importance to modernism has been understated. Smoke and Mirrors uncovers the history of the factory's planning, design, and construction, and for the first time, apart from the building's historical narrative, positions this addition to Dresden's skyline within the formative histories of the modern movement.
