    "Fast wahr"
    (2009)
    Kiem, Karl
    The article deals with the uncritical transfer of the argumentation of the style clashes between moderate and functionalist modernity of the 1920s to the present and the corresponding one-sided evaluation according to functionalist prejudices. The focus of the study is the Gartenstadt Staaken by the architect Paul Schmitthenner, which was one of the most progressive urban development projects in Germany at the time of its creation (1914 ff.). This example illustrates the absurdity and ridiculousness of the ideologically narrowed argumentation that is put forward from time to time.

    Der Umbau des Heilig-Geist Hospitals von Alkmaar zur Waage (1582)
    (1996)
    Kiem, Karl
    First analysis in architectural history of the of the individual building phases of the socalled Weigh House of Alkmaar, including the original Holy Spirit Hospital, the extension of an almshouse and the conversion into a trade hall called 'Weighing House'. The text shows that the conception of the original building as a chapel is a typical misinterpretation of medieval hospitals. Furthermore it is shown that the conversion to a so-called Weigh House is a multifunctional trading hall.

    Ideal und Wirklichkeit
    (1996)
    Kiem, Karl
    Um die Waage von Haarlem rankte sich ein einhundert Jahre alter Gelehrtenstreit, wer das Gebäude entworfen hat: Der im Entwerfen von Gebäuden unbedarfte Maler Cornelis Cornelisz. oder der Stadtbaumeister Lieven de Key. Der vorliegende Artikel liefert widmet sich hauptsächlich der Analyse des Entwurfs für die Fassade des Gebäudes. Diese Unterusuchung liefert den definitiven Beweis, dass der Entwurf von niemand anderem als Lieven de Key stammen kann. The Weigh House of Haarlem was the subject a one hundred year old scholarly dispute about who designed the building: The painter Cornelis Cornelisz., who was inexperienced in designing buildings, or the city architect Lieven de Key. The present article is mainly devoted to the analysis of the design of the building's façade. This investigation provides the definitive proof that the design could not have come from anyone other than Lieven de Key.
