Book Description
Luzern, die Stadt vor dem Pilatus, am Vierwaldstättersee, eingerahmt von schneebedeckten Bergen und sanften Hügeln, ausgestattet mit Brücken und Kirchen, Herrschaftshäusern und Grand Hotels, Altstadtgassen und Seepromenaden, dieses malerische Bild ist weltbekannt. Dass die Stadt aber auch über eine beachtliche Baukultur des 20. Jahrhunderts bis zu Bauten aus der Hand von europaweit bekannten Architekten wie Jean Nouvel, Diener & Diener und Hans Kollhoff verfügt, das vermag der seit langem fällige Architekturführer Luzern eindrücklich zu erhellen. In sechs 'Spaziergängen durch Raum und Zeit' und einem 'Abstecher' in die acht Agglomerationsgemeinden beschreibt und dokumentiert der Autor und profunde Kenner der Schweizerischen und der Luzerner Architektur des 20. Jahrhunderts, Otti Gmür, systematisch die wichtigsten Bauten des 20. Jahrhunderts und der Gegenwart. Beschreibungen von Ensembles, historische und neue Übersichtspläne und die Berücksichtigung von früheren Bauten, die Teil von Ensembles sind oder die in jüngster Zeit Adaptionen und Veränderungen erfahren haben, runden das Bild über die Stadt Luzern und ihre städtebauliche Entwicklung ab. Der Führer ist Animator und Begleiter zu einem realen oder imaginären Besuch Luzerns.

Book Description
The work of the landscape architects Lukas Schweingruber and Rainer Zulauf is based on abstraction. This abstract approach reveals and deciphers the essential nature of landscape and urban environment. With the Oerliker Park in Zurich or the Museum Park in Kalkriese in Germany, valid representations of contemporary design in outdoor spaces have been created.

Book Description
In recent years, Philipp Brühwiler, the architect from Zug, has constructed several noteworthy buildings far away from any press coverage. The area at the foothills of the Alps requires that it be dealt with more intensively, and this is the case in Bauen in Hanglagen, (Building in Hillside Locations), a topic that is not always popular. Text in English and German.

He has designed a number of remarkable buildings since 1993, among them two idiosyncratic multi-family houses in Chur (2004), and the extension of the school facility in Riom-Parsonz (2006).
