520 |a In the 20th century, modern architecture thrived in Cuba and a wealth of buildings was realized prior to the revolution 1959 and in its wake. The designs comprise luxurious nightclubs and stylish hotels, sports facilities, elegant private homes and apartment complexes. Drawing on the vernacular, their architects defined a way to be modern and Cuban at the same time – creating an architecture oscillating between tradition and avantgarde.Audacious concrete shells, curving ramps, elegant brises-soleils and a fluidity of interior and exterior spaces are characteristic of an airy, often colorful architecture well-suited to life in the tropics. New photographs and drawings were specially prepared for this publication. A biographical survey portraits the 40 most important Cuban architects of the era. 
520 |a Vor der Revolution 1959 und in den Jahrzehnten danach ist in Kuba eine aufregende und eigenständige Architektur entstanden. Dieser erste umfassende Überblick zeigt luxuriöse Nachtclubs und Hotels, Sportanlagen, elegante Privathäuser und Apartmentgebäude. Geschickt verknüpften die kubanischen Architekten althergebrachte Bauweisen mit der Moderne und schufen eine Architektur zwischen Tradition und Avantgarde.Gewagte Betonschalen, geschwungene Rampen, elegante Brises-Soleils und fließende Übergänge zwischen Innen- und Außenraum sind charakteristisch für eine luftige, oft farbenfrohe Architektur, die an die tropische Umgebung angepasst ist. Für die Publikation wurden Bauten neu fotografiert und Pläne neu gezeichnet. Ein biographischer Überblick porträtiert die 40 wichtigsten kubanischen Architekten dieser Epoche.
