Paul Weidlinger (22 December 1914 – 1999) was a Hungarian structural engineer. Paul was born in Budapest on December 22, 1914.[1] He attended the Brno University of Technology, Czechoslovakia followed by Swiss Polytechnic Institute, Zurich. After his graduation in 1937 Weidlinger went to London looking for work. Whilst sitting in his room at 3 Bedford Square reading the telephone directory he came across the name of László Moholy-Nagy. He decided to Cold call him and was successful in being taken on as a draftsman.[2] During his stay in London he visited the Paris World Fair and particularly appreciated the Pavilion des Temps Nouveaux]], (Pavilion of New Times), a tent pavilion designed by Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret. From April to August 1938 he was working for Le Corbusier.[3] After leaving Europe in 1939 he worked and taught in La Paz, Bolivia. In 1943 he moved on to the United States where he started working for Charles Wohlstetter designing modular aircraft hangars that could be assembled quickly. With Charles' brother Albert Wohlstetter and Weidlinger worked at the United States Housing Authority applying these modular principles to domestic residential buildings.[4] He started his own practice, Weidlinger Associates, in 1949.[1] He designed his home, the Paul and Madeleine Weidlinger House, in Wellfleet, Massachusetts. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014.[5] Paul Weidlinger died in 1999 References1. ^1 {{cite web|title=PAUL WEIDLINGER - Wellfleet, MA, USA|url=https://plansmatter.com/view-architects/paul-weidlinger-wellfleet-ma-usa|website=PlansMatter|publisher=Plans Matter|accessdate=10 March 2018}} {{authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Weidlinger, Paul}}2. ^{{cite web|last1=Weidlinger|first1=Tom|title=BEAUTY, ART AND THE SHAPE OF THINGS TO COME|url=http://restlesshungarian.com/beauty-art-and-the-shape-of-things-to-come/|website=restlesshungarian.com|accessdate=10 March 2018}} 3. ^{{cite web|last1=Weidlinger|first1=Tom|title=THE PAVILION OF NEW TIMES|url=http://restlesshungarian.com/the-pavilion-of-new-times/|website=restlesshungarian.com|accessdate=10 March 2018}} 4. ^{{cite book |last=Kaplan |first=Fred |date=1983 |title=The Wizards of Armageddon |location=New York |publisher=Simon and Schuster |isbn=0-671-42444-0}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.nps.gov/history/nr/listings/20140307.htm|title=National Register of Historic Places actions: 2/24/2014 through 2/28/2014|publisher=National Park Service|accessdate=2014-03-15}} 4 : 1914 births|1999 deaths|American structural engineers|20th-century American engineers |
