Book Description
Where East meets West - The best of both worlds
Berlin is an enchanting city with an incredible and turbulent history. Its Western half once an island in a sea behind the iron curtain, Berlin still bears the marks of a once-divided city-they have become an integral part of its personality.
Since the reunification, the city has experienced an extraordinary rebirth and developed into a veritable cultural and political melting-pot, making it one of the most diverse and exceptional cities in the world. Full of creative types, and with a bustling international community, Berlin is naturally home to a unique range of interiors which reflect the city's mix of Eastern and Western influences.
From the home of the Love Parade's founder to a Turkish cafe, via a garden house, hotel, house boat, bordello, artist's loft, rabbi's home, and much more, Berlin Interiors offers an inspiring view of the city and its inhabitants.

Book Description
Ever since the "fall of the Wall," Berlin has witnessed an unprecedented surge in new and re-construction, particularly in the area around Potsdam and Paris Squares, where the Wall cut an enormous swath through the city's center. Striking multi-billion dollar complexes built by corporations such as Sony and Daimler have helped revitalize Berlin, bringing it architecturally in step with the rest of the world. But alongside these monuments to capitalism are equally exciting developments in the city's residential architecture. This book looks at a number of extraordinary living spaces designed by leading architects, featuring beautifully produced color photographs, floor plans, descriptive texts, and biographies of the designers. From new private houses that are as complex as they are luxurious, to the widely lauded and wildly creative regentrification of the drab, concrete blocks that once symbolized the stagnation of the GDR era, these private spaces reveal the insurgence of youthful energy, ideas, and optimism that make Berlin one of the most exciting places to live in today's world, and offer a wealth of ideas and inspiration for anyone looking to build, or rebuild, a remarkable home.
Customer Reviews:
an interesting, yet occasionally eclectic selection.......2002-10-29
i picked this book up today and have already worked my way through it the first time. written up in english, german, french and spanish, the words are few, and the pictures relatively many. thick and pocket-sized, it offers an interesting cross-section of some higher-end apartments in berlin. i found it more to my taste on a quick peruse than other books in the series, but to be honest, i will likely end up with them all, starting with "tokyo apartments" tomorrow. of course, in books such as this, one can never end up liking all the selections, yet i find that even with the apartments whose owners' taste i don't share, i appreciate seeing what they have done. i am a minimalist, if i had to choose my closest to favorite style, and many apartments in this book offer good ideas and insight about how to extract the most from an occasionally compact or challenging layout. recommended.

Book Description
Berlin has triumphed over its own history as a divided city to become one of the most vibrant and thrilling capitals in Europe. Entire districts have been rebuilt in only ten years, making the city a showcase of great architectural achievement.
Living in Berlin seeks out both the new and the old of Berlin's most eye-catching attractions from the fabulous eighteenth-century palace of Sans-Souci to breathtaking new buildings designed by moderns like Foster, Starck, and Gehry. This sumptuously illustrated book offers an insider's tour of the city's unique architectural and cultural heritage-and beyond, to the hidden jewels and neglected treasures of the Berlin that most travelers pass by. Living in Berlin pauses at the river and the lakes that lie at the heart of the city, and visits hidden courtyards and market squares. The classic Berlin of Kurt Weill's songs is still there; the voice of Marlene Dietrich still hangs in the smoke-filled bars-if only you know where to look! Living in Berlin also visits cutting-edge contemporary designs for living in the city; from minimalist modern settings to the organized chaos of young artists' studios. The book is completed by details on the best places for excursions and shopping trips, where to eat and where to stay, all selected by true Berliners.

Book Description
This critical edition presents the only complete, later medieval Latin commentary on the first two books of Martianus Capella's influential handbook of the Seven Liberal Arts. Using his allegorical interpretation of the programmatic marriage of Mercury (eloquence) and Philology (learning) as a speculative, proto-scientific method of inquiry, the commentator provides encyclopedic coverage of medieval philosophy, theology, science, myth, language, literature and education. Intellectually the author is still connected with early scholasticism and the "School of Chartres," being more sympathetic to Neoplatonism than to the newly arrived Aristotelianism. He is particularly interested in the role of good works which he sees revealed sub integumento in the function of Iuno in the Capitoline trinity. The commentary seems to have been designed with a reading audience and a reference in mind. The present edition has been keyed to Dick's as well as Willis' editions of Martianus Capella.
