Wendepunkt im Bauen, by Konrad Wachsmann (Rowohlts Deutsche Enzyklopädie 160, 1962), champions industrialised manufacturing processes in building production. The book advocates for the industrialisation and factory prefabrication of building components to create a more efficient, modern, and systematic approach to construction and form-giving.
The text is in German. The book is illustrated with black-and-white photographs and architectural drawings.
