Summary: In the first half of the twentieth century, a distinctivekind of architecture appeared across Europe and North America, characterized by stripped, plain, often pure white walls; wide windows; flat roofs; and prominent balconies, terraces and roof gardens. From houses to hospitals, this architecture was frequently constructed from steel and reinforced concrete and featured large expanses of glass. Paul Overy takes a fresh look at the geometric forms and sparkling surfaces of the new architecture. He explores the preoccupations of the periodwith air and sunshine, space, health, hygiene and whiteness, and how, together with the utopian notions of ^"the clean machine^" and the model factory, these concerns became fundamental to the development of new architecturaland design practices. Individual buildings, such as Adolf Loos, Walter Gropius, Le Corbusier, Jan Duiker, Berthold Lubetkin and Richard Neutra, are examined within the context of class and social control, luxury and austerity,race and colonialism. -- Dust Jacket | | หัวเรื่อง |
