Date

June 2020

Location

This essay explores the relationship between architecture and the city through the work of Ludwig Hilberseimer. It examines his strategies in the project “The Decentralized City,” developed from 1938 while he taught at IIT Chicago and published in the 1940s. The study highlights Hilberseimer’s arguments on urban organization during the Post-Industrial Era and how his ideas sought to unify architecture and city planning into a cohesive, livable experience.
