Zürich & Munich
Architekt & Künstler / Architect & Artist
Berlepsch-Valendas was a Swiss-born architect, designer and artist who later established himself in Munich, where he was a key figure in the development of the Jugendstil movement there. He also had several British contacts and was strongly influenced by the English Garden City movement. A dedicated social reformer, his most ambitious project as an architect was his plan for a large garden city in Perlach just to the south of Munich, which were never executed.
