Why Is Robert Vorhoelzer Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Robert Vorhoelzer was a German architect. Vorhoelzer belonged to the classical modernist school of architecture that is otherwise rather underrepresented in Bavaria. Most of his works were built when Vorhoelzer was Oberbaurat of the Bavarian postal administration. Together with Robert Poeverlein he founded the "Bayerische Postbauschule". In the early stages of his work, such as at the post office Penzberg or the post office on Ismaninger Straße in Munich, the influence of the "Heimatstil" was dominant. But later Vorhoelzer built many modern and functional buildings in the style of Neue Sachlichkeit. These include, for example, the post office on Tegernseer Landstraße in Munich-Obergiesing, the post office building at Goethe Platz or the post office at Harras place in Munich-Sendling , a white office building with a rotunda and high rise apartment blocks in the background. The harmonious integration of his buildings in the surrounding urban landscape proves Vorhoelzer's ability as a city planner. In particular, the appearance of the Arnulfstraße in Munich owns much to the numerous Vorhoelzer buildings.
