  • Free Forms of European Skyscrapers
    ZNUV 2019;66(3);31-40 31 Joanna Pietrzak, Anna Stefańska Politechnika Warszawska FREE FORMS OF EUROPEAN SKYSCRAPERS Summary One of the advantages of a modern skyscraper is its original form. The determinant of originality is freedom, a departure from rigid rules. The architects ‘play’ with the inspirations in the search for a free form, among others, by entering into dialogue with classic image of a skyscraper, which is reinterpreted or even negated. A large creative potential is associated with a way to define dependence of form and structure. Key words: high-rise building, tall building, skyscraper, Europe, architectural icons, aesthetic expres- sion, game of form and construction. Introduction Over the last 50 years, both the form of a European skyscraper and the social acceptance of such a tall building changed. Skyscrapers have become not only an integral part of the urban surrounding, but also icons of identification of some large cities. The importance of iconic architecture was appreciated after the construction of such objects as the Bilbao museum or the Kunsthaus in Graz. Developers identify the form of the building with a marketing advantage and cooperate with famous architects in order to design original high-rise buildings (Sterlitz 2005). In modern architecture, the originality is determined by the free, i.e. deviating from rules (Słownik Języka Polskiego 2012), form of the building. In searching for such form, archi- tects play with inspirations: they refer to different styles and to unique local conditions. Even 25 years ago, a typical tall building would still be seen as an anonymous workplace. The latest projects are objects of public admiration, oftentimes acting as tourist attractions (Rees et al.

  • Mein Frankfurt Am Main Stadtführer Für Kinder
    Bettina Tenge-Lyazami Leonore Poth Mein Frankfurt am Main Stadtführer für Kinder mpfohlen d e ur ch d a s Frankfurt und die Stadtteile Vor langer Zeit gab es einen von Wasser umschlossenen Hügel in der weiten Main- landschaft. Es war weit und breit die einzige Stelle, die bei Hochwasser trocken blieb. Nieder-Erlenbach Schnell erkannten schlaue Köpfe, dass dies ein guter Ort für eine Siedlung war. Der Hügel Nieder-Eschbach ließ sich prima verteidigen: Gegenüber Feinden und wilden Tieren. Durch eine flache Stelle im Fluss, die Furt, konnte man ihn leicht erreichen. Kein Wunder, dass sich vor etwa 8.000 Harheim Jahren bereits Steinzeitmenschen dort niederließen. Später waren es Kelten, Chatten, Kalbach-Riedberg Römer, Alemannen und Franken, die auf dem Hügel siedelten. Im frühen Mittelalter bekam Bonames die Siedlung ihren Namen. Eine Urkunde von Frankenkönig Karl dem Großen aus dem Jahr 794 benennt als Entstehungsort erstmals ein Franconofurd. Um die Hütten der ersten Frankfurter Berg Berkersheim Siedler wuchs im Verlauf der Jahrhunderte eine richtige Stadt herum. Freie Flächen wurden Niederursel bebaut, neu gegründete Stadtteile bevölkert und ehemals eigenständige Dörfer des Heddern- Eschers- Bergen-Enkheim heim heim Preunges- Umlands eingemeindet.
