Original black covers with mounted colour plate, 64 pp including 48 pages with 61 photographs on black background, one tipped-in colour plate, two opaque leaves (before and after the photo section), ca 30 plans and sections. Dahlberg; ""Zur neuen Wohnform is one of the most attractively designed publications ever on International Style architecture, in itself a congenial expression of the Luckhart Brothers' aesthetic ideals. The book is mainly a pictorial documentation of the Luckhardt Brothers' uncompromisingly abstract and cubic terrace of houses in the Dahlem district of Berlin and their steel-framed houses at Am Rupenhorn in Berlin's Charlottenburg, both defining them as masters of refined International Style architecture. But the book also includes interiors and furniture displayed at the 1928 exhibition "Heim und Technik" in Munich, photos of small-apartment building models, etc.
