Die Kunst der Putzfassade. Über das Gestalten mit Putz
Description
The book »Die Kunst der Putzfassade: Über das Gestalten mit Putz« by Saint-Gobain Weber was written especially for architects. It provides extensive information on the properties and processing techniques of mineral renders and raises awareness of the design potential of this undervalued material. The render-related theme of structure and feel is reflected in the sophisticated design of the book, with its paper types of varying textures and its removable work cards.
Statement of the jury
The subject of plaster façades and the wide range of possibilities for their design is conveyed not only in terms of content, but also haptically, using different types of paper. The removable cards showing different plaster structures are another nice detail.
