The Göttingen architect Hansjochen Schwieger consciously backs “normality”. Buildings of high technical and formal quality distance
his work from spectacular, often unnerving “event architecture”. Conservative in the best sense of the word, Schwieger’s architectural of-
fice has been working successfully according to this principle for many years – in a wide spectrum ranging from residential and
office buildings to urban development. Architekturbüro Schwieger 2006/2007 documents 25 of Schwieger’s recent projects using photographs
and plans, supplemented by an essay by Gert Kähler. This book presents architecture that meets the highest formal standards, while never losing sight of its assignment.
