While the style was conceived early in the 20th century and heavilypromoted by a few architects, architectural educators and exhibits, very few Modern buildingswere built in the first half of the century. For three decades after the Second World War, however,it bec

OriginsSome historians see the evolution of Modern architecture as a social matter, closely tied tothe project of Modernity and hence to the Enlightenment, a result of social and politicalrevolutions.Others see Modern a

In 1796, Shrewsbury mill owner Charl
5、es Bage first used his fireproof design, whichrelied on cast iron and brick with flag stone floors. Such construction greatly strengthened thestructure of mills, which enabled them to accommodate much bigger machines. Due to poorknowledge of irons properties as a construction material, a number of e

Itwas not until the early 1830s that Eaton Hodgkinson introduced the section beam, leading towidespread use of iron construction, this kind of austere industrial architecture utterlytransformed the landscape of northern Britain, leading to the description, Dark satanic mills of

The Crystal Palace by Joseph Paxton at theGreat Exhibition of 1851 was an early example of iron and glass construction; possibly the bestexample is the development of the tall steel skyscraper in Chicago around 1890 by William LeBaron Jenney and Lo

The big three are commonly recognized as Le Corbusier in France, and Ludwig Miesvan der Rohe and Walter Gropius in Germany. Mies van der Rohe and Gropius were
12、bothdirectors of the Bauhaus, one of a number of European schools and associations concerned withreconciling craft tradition and industrial technology.Frank Lloyd Wrightrs career parallels and influences the work of the European modernists,particularly via the Wasmuth Portfolio, but he refused to be

Wright was amajor influence on both Gropius and van der Rohe, however, as well as on the whole of organicarchitecture.In 1932 came the important MOMA exhibition, the International Exhibition of ModemArchitecture, curated by Philip Johnson. Johnson and collaborator Henry-Russe
14、ll Hitchcock drewtogether many distinct threads and trends, identified them as stylistically similar and having acommon purpose, and consolidated them into the International Style.This was an important turning point. With World War II the important figures of the Bauhausfled to the United States, to

While Modern architectural design never became a dominant style insingle-dwelling residential buildings, in institutional and commercial architecture Modernismbecame the pre-eminent, and in the schools (for leaders of

The most commonly used materials are glass for thefacade, steel for exterior support, and concrete for the floors and interio
