Architecture Is a Tool to Improve Lives
“Perfection blocks any form of participation and also causes an excessive consumption of resources.” In Form Follows Love, Anna Heringer describes her understanding of architecture. For her new book, she traveled to Bangladesh with Iwan Baan to visit the buildings created there as well as her women's empowerment project, Dipdii Textiles. Dutch photographer Iwan Baan is best known for his images that show life and interactions in architecture. In Bangladesh, he created intense and sensual images that, between documentation and art, bear witness to what architecture can achieve when it is not about representation but about social benefit. The complementary photobook to Form Follows Love METI School, DESI Center, kindergartens, birthplace in Hittisau etc. New, previously unpublished photos: also Baan's pictures of Heringer's latest buildings in Europe

Editado por Arquitectura Viva junto con la Fundación ICO, el catálogo de la exposición 'Anna Heringer. Belleza esencial' recoge las principales obras y proyectos de la arquitecta alemana, desde sus edificios en Bangladesh - las Escuelas Meti y Desi o el edificio Anandaloy-, en China -los albergues de bambú y el Museo de la Cerámica de Majiayao- y en África -un campus educativo en Ghana o una guardería en Zimbabue-, hasta los proyectos desarrollados en Europa -el espacio para el nacimiento en Austria, un alojamiento ayurveda en Alemania o un proyecto de ecoturismo en España-, en los que ha incorporado materiales y técnicas tradicionales de aquellos países, como la tierra compactada. Bajo el lema 'La arquitectura es una herramienta para mejorar vidas', Heringer ha impulsado también iniciativas como el taller Dipdii Textiles para mujeres de Bangladesh o el Manifiesto de Laufen por una cultura del diseño más humana.
