Living Organic Architecture

Living-organic architecture originated in Rudolf Steiner’s work as architect, which largely began with construction of the first Goetheanum in Dornach. This became the centre of anthroposophical work. In the environs of the Goetheanum Rudolf Steiner designed a series of dwellings and functional buildings, which give expression in diverse ways to his architectural impulse.

Since the beginning of the twentieth century many architects from all continents have tried to work out of this impulse, and develop an architecture in harmony with contemporary times, human beings and the spirit.
