Exclusieve Aanbieding Modernism London Style

Modernism London Style chronicles the creativity of the ‘architects’ and designers of the period, as well as the currents in the city’s culture that helped shape their work. Architecture scholar Adam Caruso sheds light on the key features of the Art Deco style and architectural historian Christoph Rauhut and photographer Niels Lehmann capture the architectural Art Deco heritage of London in a photographic tour.

In the 1920s, London was changing. In contrast with London’s ageing Victorian structures, the bright and colourful architecture of modernism – from the Hoover Factory to the Ideal House by Raymond Hood, who later designed New York’s Rockefeller Center -communicated the city’s aspirations as a thriving, modern metropolis.
