The Werkgruppe Graz designed the terraced housing estate in Graz-St. Peter in 1965, during a period of societal upheaval. The complex was eventually built between 1972 and 1978. The planning group—members of the avant-garde artists’ association Forum Stadtpark—took a stand against the established system of residential construction, which was characterized by monotone design and the urban sprawl of single-family homes. Instead, they championed the utopian approach of involving residents in the planning process, which was reflected in the development’s basic structuralist framework with adaptable living units. Comprised of four terraced housing blocks in exposed concrete at the edge of Graz, the estate’s sculptural, brutalist appearance received international acclaim. Gelebte Utopie is the first book to provide a collection of texts of architectural commentary and context on the settlement. It additionally offers insights into the inhabitants’ living spaces and is enriched with artistic projects.

This critical dictionary introduces approximately seventy terms from architectural theory in short, clear, and accessible essays. The entries cover contemporary concepts such as agency, Baukultur, and right-wing spaces, alongside foundational notions such as architecture, function, and space, as well as slogans such as "form follows function," "less is more," and "fifteen-minute city." Each explains the history of the term, critically situating it within its theoretical context and examining its underlying ideologies. Numerous cross-references, references to further literature, and a comprehensive index make this volume an essential and engaging resource. A new standard reference work for architectural theory—suitable for students and architects Provides foundational knowledge for critically evaluating architectural discourse Marks the first volume after the redesign of the architektur + analyse series
