Projects by Professor Andrzej Frydecki for universities in Wrocław
Journal Title: Architectus - Year 2016, Vol 20, Issue 2
Abstract
Andrzej Frydecki (1903–1989), an architect and one of the founders of the Faculty of Architecture at Wrocław University of Technology, began his career in the late 1920s in Lviv. During several years of professional activity he designed dozens of single- and multi-family houses, public buildings, churches, cultural and health care objects. After the end of the Second World War he became associated with the capital of Lower Silesia, where he educated young architects and prepared many projects, e.g. for Wrocław universities. The article presents architectural designs of Frydecki of the late 1940s and 1950s – erected buildings such as the new headquarters and laboratory halls of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at Wrocław University of Technology, as well as not so well known concepts, which were not realized (student dormitories, concepts of the technical university campus development, seats of the Faculties of Electrical Engineering and Aviation). All the shown buildings were designed in the style close to modernism; their realization was impossible for ideological reasons as in 1949 in Poland there was implemented a new method of architectural design – the socialist realism.
