Hans Benno Bernoulli (17 February 1876 – 12 September 1959) was a Swiss architect and city planner.
Family
[edit]Bernoulli was born in Basel, the son of Theodor Bernoulli, an office clerk. He was descended from the Bernoulli family of mathematicians.[1] The suffragette and feminist Elisabeth Bernoulli (1873–1935) was his sister.
In 1904, he married Anna Ziegler in Berlin.

These houses are a garden city project, from the 1920s and were meant to be sold without profit to the workers.
