Architektur und Film haben vieles gemeinsam. Filmhandlungen sind eingebettet in Szenenbilder, die die Erzählung visuell unterstützen. Architektur tritt manchmal sogar als Darsteller auf. Umgekehrt legt der Film mit seinen changierenden Atmosphären neue Schichten der Architektur frei, die außerhalb des Kinos verborgen blieben. Das Massenmedium Film beeinflusst damit die Rezeption der Architektur und deren Bild in der Gesellschaft. Architektur bildet mit dem Film eine Symbiose seit Anbeginn des Kinos. Dieses Buch bietet durch seine systematische Darstellung eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Geschichte der gegenseitigen Beeinflussung, beginnend mit einer Filmographie als einer Typologie bekannter Film-Sets bis hin zur Beschreibung des Chamäleon-Effekts zwischen Film und Architektur.

Architecture and film have many things in common. Film narratives are embedded in scenes that visually support the story. Sometimes architecture even performs the role of an actor. Conversely, film with its multifaceted changing atmospheres reveals new layers of architecture which, outside the cinema, would remain concealed. In conclusion, film as a mass medium influences the way architecture is perceived, and its image in society. Since the beginning of cinema, architecture has formed a symbiosis with film. With its systematic analysis, this book offers a scientifically researched history of mutual influence, starting with filmography as a typology of well-known film sets through to the description of the chameleon effect between film and architecture.
