werk, bauen + wohnen
The magazine for architecture and urban planning

About the journal:

The medium of the BSA/FAS (Bund Schweizer Architekten / Federation of Swiss Architects) and of the VSI.ASAI (Vereinigung Schweizer InnenarchitektInnen / Association of Swiss Interior Architects)

A continuation of: "Das Werk" (1914 - 1942), "Werk" (1943 - 1976), "werk-archithese" (1977 - 1979). See also "Die Schweizerische Baukunst".

The journal was founded in 1914 by the Federation of Swiss Architects and the Swiss Werkbund. From 1943 - 1976 it was the organ of the Schweizerische Kunstverein too (Swiss Art Association). After a short term collaboration from 1977 - 79 with Niggli Verlag Sulgen the journal merged in 1980 with the architecture magazine "Bauen + Wohnen" (Bauen + Wohnen GmbH) - founded in 1942 - to the publishing partnership Werk, Bauen + Wohnen (until 1999).

"werk, bauen + wohnen" appears ten times annually and is among the most important specialist publications for architecture and town planning in German-speaking Europe; around 80 pages with summaries in both English and French.

Lists of contexts and editorials of those issues from the last five years that have not yet been put online at Baugedächtnis can be found on the publisher's website, where individual issues can also be ordered (www.wbw.ch).
