Otto Wagner was a pioneer of 20th-century architecture, creating key works of modernity such as the Vienna Stadtbahn, the Postal Savings Bank, and the Church at Steinhof. In response to historicism, Wagner designed a radiant, rational architecture for the future, grounded in purpose, material, and construction. His radical designs, visualized in spectacular drawings, represented a breakthrough for modernists while provoking traditionalists. Consequently, many of his projects remained on paper. This richly illustrated volume includes contributions from renowned experts and features the first annotated catalog of all of Wagner's works, promising to become the standard reference on the architect's oeuvre.
