Wilhelm Grebe was one of Adolf Hitler's architects. Grebe noted that there were at least seventy different types of indigenous architecture in Nazi Germany and that in the future it would be impossible to preserve all of them; standardization throughout Germany might be necessary in the future. Furthermore, he warned, it might prove impossible to use local materials in every case:
- "We shall have to move ahead towards a healthy standardization."
Here was a suggestion for mass production of material for indigenous peasant architecture, which surely ran counter to everything volkisch writers sought.
Famous quotes containing the word wilhelm:
“Into all that becomes something inward for men, an image or conception as such, into all that he makes his own, language has penetrated ... logic must certainly be said to be the supernatural element which permeates every relationship of man to nature, his sensation, intuition, desire, need, instinct, and simply by so doing transforms it into something human, even though only formally human, into ideas and purposes.”
—Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
