Architecture Is a Tool to Improve Lives (Anna Heringer)

"Perfection blocks any form of participation and also causes an excessive consumption of resources." In Form Follows Love, Anna Heringer describes her understanding of architecture. For her new book, she traveled to Bangladesh with Iwan Baan to visit the buildings created there as well as her women's empowerment project, Dipdii Textiles. Dutch photographer Iwan Baan is best known for his images that show life and interactions in architecture. In Bangladesh, he created intense and sensual images that, between documentation and art, bear witness to what architecture can achieve when it is not about representation but about social benefit. The complementary photobook to Form Follows Love METI School, DESI Center, kindergartens, birthplace in Hittisau etc. New, previously unpublished photos: also Baan's pictures of Heringer's latest buildings in Europe
