The architecture firm nps tchoban voss, with offices in Hamburg, Berlin, and Dresden, is one of the few German firms with an international presence. Founded in Hamburg in 1931, it is rich in tradition and distinguished by a modern orientation that conditions the entire design process, from the initial city-planning phase to the carefully developed architectural detail. Their designs are guided by a consciousness of the architect's responsibility vis-à-vis society. The buildings of nps tchoban voss are striking, even iconic, but never preen or attempt to steal the show.
This book presents about forty buildings and projects, including the World Trade Center in Dresden, the Oval Office and SAGA's administrative headquarters in Hamburg, the DomAquarée and Chabad Lubavitch synagogue in Berlin, the Überseequartier in Hamburg, and the Federation Tower in Moscow.
