For offices

Deutsche Verlags-Anstalt

144 pages

With 160 colour photographs and

120 plans and drawings

Format 23,0 x 29,7 cm

August 2010

Johannes Kottjé is an

architectural engineer who

travels throughout Germany

in his role as independent

expert on building damage

and advisor to owner-builders

and architects. A regular

contributor to specialist

magazines, he has also

written numerous books on

architecture, building

construction and interior

design, many of which have

been published by DVA.

An aesthetically refined office space is the calling card of every self-

employed professional. Whether built-in or as separate pieces,

furniture is the most basic component of these offices’ interior design.

Custom designed and built furniture makes it possible to design

spaces intelligently, in ways often simply not possible with standard

furniture.

Johannes Kottjé documents more than twenty-five different projects,

illustrating and discussing them in the larger context of the interior

design as a whole. Architects, interior designers, cabinetmakers, and

clients are given a comprehensive introduction to the subject and a

wealth of ideas.

• Detailed design drawings, high-quality photographs, authoritative

texts

• Consideration of individually designed furniture within the larger

context of interior design and decoration

Interior Design Space – Function – Atmosphere – Style

Martin Benad

Colour for Interiors [Farbgestaltung Innenraum]


176 pages



October 2010

Martin Benad and his wife

Ursula run the studio Atelier

Benad for creative use of

colour and wall decoration in

Munich. He and his wife

develop individual designs for

the private homes and also

business premises of their

clients and offer regular

seminars on colour planning,

wall decorating and illusionary

decoration. Martin Benad also

works as a journalist.

Colours shape the atmosphere of a room and contribute significantly

to our feeling of well-being. And more, designed coloration is a clear

expression of individuality and style. On the basis of inspiring

examples, colour designer Martin Benad shows how a cleverly

designed coloration simplifies orientation, supports the functionality

of a room, and elevates the mood of its users.

The book delves into the following questions:

• What strategy can be used to develop a meaningful concept of

colour?

• What are the rules for interpretating an interior space coloristically?

• How can colour optimize a room’s desired function?

• How can atmosphere and style be translated into concrete tones?

All important aspects are systematically represented through detailed

3-D models. The book also presents an introduction to colour

psychology.

• Space – Function – Atmosphere – Style

• Vivid presentation with illustrations of colour concepts

• Instructions, checklists, and practical tips for both experts and

amateurs

• Includes a portfolio with samples of colours and surface patterns

Gardening Astonishing, harmonious, f illed with

exemplary ideas and inspirations

Ursel Borstell, Christa

Hasselhorst

A Garden for all Seasons [Ein Garten für alle Jahreszeiten]

Artistic, inspiring, surprising


96 pages



August 2010

Ursel Borstell studied

photography and graphic

design at the prestigious

Folkwangschule in Essen.

Specialising in garden

photography since 1990, she is

one of the most sought-after

garden photographers in

Germany.

Christa Hasselhorst is a

culture journalist who writes

for for newspapers and

magazines. She has worked as

a radio editor, press secretary

for the state opera and for the

Thalia Theater in Hamburg.

Since 1997 she not only

portrays artists in the fields of

music and theater, but also

kneels in the garden beds, and

writes about gardens and their

owners. She is the author of

several books, and leads tours

of Berlin's and Potsdam's

private and public gardens.

Whoever thinks that a garden can be enjoyed only from spring to fall

will discover in this book that the opposite is true. The garden here, in

the raw region of Osnabruck Land in Germany's lower Saxony, is not

blessed with some particularly favourable climate. But its gardener

has designed her blossoming kingdom in a manner as individual as it

is tasteful, with many innovative ideas and unusual combinations of

plants. She outwits autumn with ingenious combinations of

perennials, bulbs, herbs, and vegetables and enacts atmospheric

paintings of green, silver, and her beloved violet. Even in otherwise

dreary winter, shaped hedges and woody plants create a scaffolding

for impressive sculptures along with evergreen plants. Numerous

seating places ranging from the conservatory to pleasurable

gatherings underneath ancient trees extend the season.

Specialising in garden

photography since 1990, she is

one of the most sought-after

garden photographers in

Germany.

boxwood borders, wayside Cross, and lush beds of vegetables, fruit,

and flowers. But it also includes espalier fruit on the walls, a

greenhouse, an extensive assortment of potted plants with a ledge of

herbs, an English border and cozy seating area, as well as a large area

of land for keeping animals and a meadow with scattered fruit trees.

These elements are realized with a remarkable respect for nature

mixed with Mediterranean flair.

Design / Architecture Instructions and inspiration for

architects, landscape architects,

Fabian Maier

Open-air Lighting [Beleuchtung im Freiraum]

Lighting Design for Gardens and

Urban Spaces


136 pages

50 b/w illustrations, 200 colour

illustrations


October 2010

Fabian Maier, born in 1971,

studied architecture at the

University of Karlsruhe. His

development into a lighting

designer began during his

studies; his first individual

projects originated during a

stay abroad in Sao Paulo. On

2003 he founded a lighting

planning office in Karlsruhe;

three years later he expanded

the practice Licht+Partner

through the collaboration of

business partner Fatih Yetgin.

Fabian Maier teaches lighting

planning at the Architecture

Department at the college in

Karlsruhe.

Gardens and squares are places of regeneration. With the help of the

right lighting, these “interior spaces without roofs” can create a

stimulating expansion of architecture and of urban and domestic life,

especially at night. Using contemporary examples, lighting-planner

Fabian Maier presents a wide range of design possibilities, the

lighting techniques required to achieve them, various kinds of

products, and the effects that can be created with them. Private

houses with roof patios, front yards, and gardens of every size are

introduced as well as examples of successful open-air architecture.

The author explains the tools of the lighting planner such as

visualization and light refractions, and provides information on

products and how to solve potential problems.

Architecture The perfect guidebook for your own

economical home

Thomas Drexel

New Houses on a Budget [Neue Low-Budget-Häuser]

Building for under 225,000 euros


160 pages



September 2010

Thomas Drexel worked in an

architect’s studio for several

years and now writes on the

subject of building,

renovating, interior design and

decorating, as well as

photographing fine examples

of architecture.

Is it even possible to build a house well and also economically? This

frequent question can be answered with an emphatic yes, if you go

about your construction project as carefully as the examples in this

book do. Building your house economically can only succeed with a

detailed plan for realizing the building project, a plan that is that is

consistent and followed carefully.

For each project in the book, the total costs remain under 225,000

euros—from excavation of the foundation pit to the final stroke of the

paintbrush, including all work, fees, additional costs, and value added

tax. The examples presented here are not “small cottages” but full-

fledged single-family homes, and some of them even high-energy-

efficiency homes such as the KfW- certified energy saving houses.

• With detailed information on cost-saving construction, detailed

dating information for construction, planning and reference

Albert Ringlstetter

An architecturally-

designed house at a fixed

price [Ein individuelles

Architektenhaus zum Festpreis]


144 pages



November 2010

Albert Ringlstetter, architect,

studied at the University of

Technology in Munich, and

has had his own office since,

specializing in houses built in

brick; he is the author of

several popular guidebooks

for clients and architects.

Whoever goes to an architect expects a good and individually-

designed plan for their house. But a realistic estimate of costs is just

as important, paving the way to a clearly-defined fixed price. What

use is the most beautiful home when the client is massively in debt

afterwards? The author presents the planning tools with which an

architect, in close consultation with the client, can really build

according to a fixed price—why accept design compromises with

building developers?

• Concepts proven in the author's practice

Architecture Building in a group: Living ideas for the

Future

Christoph Gunßer, Theo Peter

building together [miteinander bauen]

Architecture for good neighbors,

building groups, cooperatives


144 pages



October 2010

Christoph Gunßer, born in

1963, is a freelance specialist

author with a focus on

sustainable planning and

building. He studied

architecture and after several

years as a practicing architect

became academic assistant at

the institute for city planning,

housing, and regional

planning at the University of

Hannover. From 1992 to 1997

he was editor of db.

Theo Peter, born in 1948, is a

banker and director of the

network BauZEIT. For twenty-

five years he has been

occupied with sustainable,

climate-friendly housing

construction with good

design, construction qualities,

and alternative financing. His

projects have been

distinguished with several

architectural and

environmental awards.

Building in a group: In building their own four walls, more and more

people are choosing new and unconventional paths. By building a

house together with like-minded people, it is possible not only to save

money, but to create a living environment that is tailored to your

individual needs much more closely than the usual housing offerings.

Architects are often involved in the planning: inspiring and

moderating construction groups is an exciting, challenging task, and

offers a promising sphere of activity. The receptiveness to new ideas

becomes mirrored in the architecture; this is why houses built by

cooperatives are frequently buildings with remarkable innovations in

terms of design, ecology, and energy balance. Christoph Gunßer and

Theo Peter, versed architectural journalist and experienced initiator

of group building projects, introduce around twenty new houses and

residential spaces in the text and descriptive photos and drawings,

and provide valuable information for planning and realization.

• Valuable ideas for planning and practice

• Selected collection of projects: project organization, design,

ecology, and the energy footprint of the houses

128 pages



September 2010

Johannes Kottjé is an

architectural engineer who

travels throughout Germany

in his role as independent

expert on building damage

and advisor to owner-builders

and architects. A regular

contributor to specialist

magazines, he has also written

numerous books on

architecture, building

construction and interior

design, many of which have

been published by DVA.

Stairways are more than just the connection between two floors.

Their materials and construction shape the interior of a house in

crucial ways. Often located centrally in modern architecture,

staircases can create a sculptural effect, or become practical

components of the interior architecture when they serve as

decorative room-dividers or for the storage of countless objects.

The book shows fifty-five staircases, ranging from intentionally

simple wooden stairs to multifunctional stairway-furniture, from the

space-saving stairway to the imposing, apparently floating design

object.

• Fifty-five stairways in a great variety of materials and constructions

• An extensive group of examples, helpful for communication

between clients, architects, and craftsmen

• All project include photos of the rooms, explanations, and technical

21st century rockers

Prestel Verlag

Format 19,3 x 27 cm

July 2010

Horst Friedrichs’ photographs

have appeared in Stern, The

Independent, and The New

York Times. He is the author of

I’m One: 21st Century Mods

(Prestel). He lives in London.

With their tattoos, leather jackets, slicked-back hair, and beloved

British motorbikes—BSAs, Triumphs, Nortons, and Royal Enfields—

Rockers are the nemesis and antithesis of the fastidiously groomed

Mods. Elvis, James Dean, and Marlon Brando made rocker style

synonymous with rebellion, sparking a global cult. Friedrichs follows

the British rocker tribe as its members congregate in parking lots,

pubs, cafes, dance and pool halls, as well as huge gatherings at Jacks

Hill and the Ace Café. Alternating between rich, vibrant colour and

gritty black and white, these photographs capture a spirit of

unapologetic defiance in clothing as well as attitude, every bit as

strong today as it was sixty years ago. Trenchant and revealing

commentary from Friedrichs’ subjects sheds light on the impulses,

yearnings, and motivations of this enduring international rebel chic

subculture.

Carol Woolton

Fashion for Jewels [Seide und Geschmeide]

100 years of styles and icons

Prestel Verlag

176 pages


Format 23 x 28

August 2010

Carol Woolton is Jewellery

Editor of British Vogue. Before

that she was Tatler magazine’s

first jewellery editor. She has

written widely on antique and

contemporary jewellery and

watches for publications such

as the London Times, the

Financial Times, and Art

Quarterly.

For as long as we’ve been dressing ourselves, we’ve been adorning

ourselves with embellishments for ears, hands, wrists, waist and

fingers. And as fashion trends evolve, so do trends in jewelry. Here

jewelry expert Carol Woolton demonstrates how the worlds of fashion

and jewelry have become increasingly integrated over the last

century.

From the corset-bound silhouettes of the turn of the century, with

their elegant drop earrings and delicate chokers, to the free-flowing

kaftans of the 1970s, adorned with chunky, earthy bangles and

beads— major trends and designers are featured in double-page

spreads that offer endlessly fascinating and informative texts and

illustrations.

Profiles of icons from Coco Chanel and Harry Winston to Princess

Diana and Michelle Obama reveal the interplay of personality and

history in the world of fashion. And as jewelry from Chanel,

Boucheron, Van Cleef & Arpels and others was shown for the first

time alongside haute couture in this year’s Paris Fashion Week,

Woolton explores how brands have made the most of this trend.

Gorgeous photography from the archives of Condé Nast, Sotheby’s,

and many fine jewelers bring precious metal and twinkling gems to

glorious life on the pages of this book.

September 2010

Simone Werle is a fashion

writer and designer based in

Munich. Her most recent book

is Fashionista (Prestel).

What makes a man a fashionisto? Swagger, elegance, daring, perhaps

a really well cut suit. The actors, designers, crooners and legends

portrayed in this collection are fashion forward men who possess

some or all of the above—and they have it in spades. Fred Astaire and

Bryan Ferry, Truman Capote and Che Guevara, George Clooney and

Boy George all find a place in this fun and fascinating exploration of

Brad Finger is an art historian

based near Chicago, Illinois.

He is the author of 13 Modern

Artists Children Should Know

and 13 American Artists

Children Should Know.

American art is as varied as the giant country itself with its 50 states:

Historical paintings from the 19th century narrate the story of this country;

Mary Cassatt, Sargent create captivating impressionistic pictures;

Americans like O' Keefe, Cornell, Pollock or Calder pave the way for all of

modern art. With a selection of 13 of the most famous artists and their

works, young readers receive an introduction to American art. A clearly

arranged chronology serves to provide historical orientation. Games,

puzzles and inspiration for creative work awaken an enthusiasm for art in

children.

Each artist is featured in double-page spreads that are as unique as their

subjects. Fascinating biographical portraits, interesting sidebars, and ideas

to spark the imagination enhance exquisite reproductions of well-known

works. Presented chronologically, these profiles are strung together by a

continuous timeline that highlights world events that impacted the artists’

work.
