Reinhold Mißelbeck/Wolfram Hagspiel. Werner Mantz. Vision vom Neuen Köln. Fotografien 1926-1932. Cologne 2000, ill. p. 59. – The group of detached houses in Heinestraße, Cologne is probably the earliest example of Neues Bauen in that city. The builder of Heinestraße 2 was the pianist and university professor Walter Georgii. The large-scale form and details clearly show an orientation towards Le Corbusier: the free façade structure with window bands, the inclusion of the roof garden in the rectangular outline of the house, the semi-circular avant-corps with a lookout at the apex, concrete planter boxes, a chimney running through to the attic and curved interior walls and a wide concrete band as a closure above the terrace. The August 1929 issue of Die Welt compared the house to buildings of Le Corbusier and Gropius. – Slight discoloration in lower margin, otherwise a fine tonal print in very good condition.
