Abstract
Abstract As an architect, Theo Lechner was committed to traditional Bavarian design languages and constructional techniques. In this article, a review of a building exhibition staged in Munich in 1926, he is very dismissive of the modernism promoted by the Bauhaus and of any hint of architectural internationalism, which he saw as a manifestation of Soviet communism.
