Concrete Love – The Böhm Family

Gottfried Böhm is the most renowned German architect of his generation. Born in a family of architects, he knew how to convey his great passion to his three sons: Stephan, Peter, and Paul. They all have great respect and admiration for their father. Gottfried is 94 and keeps working daily on the design of new buildings. Alongside his wife Elisabeth, they form a unique family of five architects. The family’s private life is filled with moments of great emotional intensity. Their big passion for architecture causes tension amongst the brothers who compete with each other. Böhms’ striking buildings suggest that life, art, and love are the same thing.
