Many Detail readers are familiar with this problem: in which issue was the story about Jean Nouvel’s skyscraper La Marseillaise actually published? And which issue featured that interesting technical article on the Bauhaus Archive in Berlin? Fortunately, for more than ten years it has been possible to search through all the projects appearing online – provided you have a Detail online subscription.

We have now significantly expanded our search functions once again. At https://www.detail.de/suche?type=projects, all the projects that have appeared in Detail since 1961 can be found in three different ways: via a free-text search, search filters, and a geographical search function in a map tool. The free-text search works like Google and other search engines. Using search filters, buildings can be categorised by typology, construction projects such as new-builds or refurbishments, or subjects such as high-rise buildings and sustainable construction.
The map tool is brand new on detail.de: clicking on the pin icon on the far right will take you to a map of Europe that you can zoom in on and out of as you wish. Alternatively, you can navigate the map by clicking on the black dots. With Detail’s map search, nothing stands in the way of your next architectural journey!
