Did modern architecture really begin in the 1920s with the founding of the Bauhaus school? Perhaps. But perhaps the changing landscape of architectural practice and theory throughout the last 200 years is not as straight forward as it seems.

Nice video, and very interesting. Just one comment: iron and steel structures are actually less fire resistant than timber, paradoxically. Iron is not combustible, but looses strenght with temperature and is a very good thermal conductor. Which means that in a fire, iron structures will colapse quickly. Timber structures burn from outside to inside, the outside layer carbonizes and carbonization progreses towards the core, but it takes longer to colapse than bare iron. Construction codes allow timber structures to be "naked" while metal structures us be painted with fire-resistant paint or encased in concrete . The Crystal Palace, for example, was destroyed in a fire.

This is a good point, I should have clarified this better in the video. Historically the movement away from timber structure for commercial buildings and densely populated districts is to minimize fire spread - which is why combustible materials were avoided because it was more likely to catch on fire. But you're right that once a building does catch on fire, timber is generally more fire resistant than metal and will less likely result in structural failure. Thanks for pointing this out.

I would say that architectural movements are a bit like genres in fiction and the like; they exist once people begin deliberately making examples of them. E.g., for fantasy literature, there's a point near the end of the 19th century when people started realizing that there was a distinct genre forming that was separate from (if directly linked to) stories that merely had elements of "the fantastic" in them. Once people set out to start writing in that nascent genre, those new writings were fantasy. This does produce a sort of chicken-and-egg problem, but transition periods are a thing and we shouldn't expect clear and unambiguous lines. In the architectural case, I'd say that the work prior to the essay you referenced was proto-Modern, driven by reasons other than imitating a discrete movement, but the essay allowed those that came after it to work _deliberately_ in that new mode.

Love this. Linking architecture to other developments in the 20th century is so interesting. I love the brief analysis of the Bauhaus as well. If you ever want to get together for a collaboration to expand on it, I feel like I need an excuse to immerse myself more in that philosopher. To answer the question at the end of the video: I'll go with "the spread of its ideas" or at least the spread of a recognized visual aesthetic, even if it there are diverse pieces of that aesthetic that don't necessarily fit with each other.

Q) When did the change start? A) Chicago World's Fair of 1893 and Frank Lloyd Wright. The architecture of the Western world at the turn of the century - 1895 to 1905 - was at best a collection of eclectic styles, with hardly one relating in any way or sense to the ideal of the nation in which it was built. This was an era which regarded architecture as an application of fashions and styles, unrelated to structural or construction techniques. Yet it was also a time going revolutionary change. New materials were emerging, and new methods of handling older ones were being developed at the same time. But the architecture being designed reflected little if anything of those new methods and materials. The Chicago Fair of 1893, was a supreme case in point. On the one hand, Louis Sullivan claimed that the Exposition "put American architecture behind for at least 50 years", while on the other hand Daniel Burnham, lauded the fair as an example of what the Americans would want to build. He told Wright, when urging him to go to the Beaux-Arts in Paris, "The Fair, Frank, is going to have a great influence in our country. The American people have seen the Classics on a grand scale for the first time". The young architect, just starting his own practice with the William Winslow house, replied, "No, there is Louis Sullivan... And if John Root were alive I don't believe he would feel that way about it. Richardson I am sure never would." Burnham further argued, "Frank, the Fair should have shown you that Sullivan and Richardson are well enough in their way, but their way won't prevail - architecture is going the other way. And it was at the time. It is ironical to realise that the date of that architectural disaster of 1893 coincides with the date at which Frank Lloyd Wright opened his private architectural practice, after nearly seven years spent in the office of Adler and Sullivan, in Chicago.

The Equitable building of 1948 in Portland designed by Pietro Belluschi was a groundbreaking building in that it's glass skin was mounted flush on the steel skeleton, giving it a single-piece, "sheer" appearance. Sullivan's Prudential (Guarantee) building of 1896 in Buffalo was groundbreaking for it's purely decorative terra-cotta skin, which, along with the structures copper-framed windows, revealed not an inch of it's steel-frame structure. In this, the Guaranty was the first true steel-frame structure with a completely separate decorative skin, whose elements could easily be replaced. Another favorite of mine is the Philadelphia Savings fund society building of 1932 by Howe & Lescaze. This building was groundbreaking in it's unique, unmistakable "modern" appearance, by means of it's clean, rounded corners, including ribbon windows and continuous vertical elelements that drew the eye up to the prominent pinnacle with it's undeniably modern neon signage, visible for miles around.

Yes good point. One thing I didn't get to in this video is actually if you turn on the captions I use "modernism" with a small "m" for everything before 1919, and then Modernism with a big "M" for everything 1920 and later. This is a way of marking the change between modern buildings and "Modernism" as a stylistic movement. But I'm sure this way of classification is debatable too.

Modern architecture started with the beginning from XX century: Sullivan and Loos foresaw the need for something new, but it wasn't until Berlage, Beherens, Perret and, to a minor extent Wright, founded the basis for what was formalized by Gropius and Le Corbusier. It's consequential to the fact the these later architects all worked as young apprentices at for the former architects. Gropius and Van De Rohe for Beherens and Le Corbusier for Perret. What in Architecture defines the begin of Modernism is the advent of armored concrete. As for what we define as "modern movement", the new architecture is defined by the duopole Gropius-LeCorbusier, because of the influence they had on every other with the writings and teachings: they were often conflicting with each other and yet they formalized what "Modernism" is

Though I'm a big fan of architecture, and came close to being an architect.....Louis Sullivan is one of the few celebrated 'modern' ones I like. Buildings like those done by Frank Lloyd Wright for instance... with their simplistic, boxy style may have been revolutionary and drawn crowds agape back in the days when their backdrop was cities full of grand old buildings. But so many since it seems have tried to cheat.... taking this concept overboard as a cost cutting measure. Simple and 'strikingly' modern has become not so striking these days, almost to the point of being mundane... and we now find ourselves surrounded by soulless glass cubes. And ironically, now treasuring the vanishing, stately old buildings once condemned as whatwas by the art experts before the I guess, modern revolution.

When did modern architecture come to dominate new building construction? In the United States, this happened at the end of World Warr II and it was a top-down implementation supported by a consensus of influential individuals mostly from the academic world. Most notably, Walter Gropius came to Harvard and built the School of Environmental Design staffed entirely by committed modernists. Gropius enforced a requirement that all student work would be modernist in style and students who did not conform were purged. This sort of absolutist regime of modernism came to dominate every school of architecture in the nation as Gropius protegees filled teaching positions in American universities. The emergence of modernism as a dominant force in the post-war building boom can be seen by reviewing architectural journals from the period like Architectural Record, Architectural Forum, etc.

I find it really interesting that the "Modern" buildings in the 1800s still have beauty and ornamentation, but some time around the 50s "Modern" buildings just became gray boxes. I have a suspicion that this is due to Le Corbusier and his segregation of land uses, which allowed the gray box to become ubiquitous due to it being isolated from people's housing.

There's actually a lot of evidence that beauty is more objective than subjective, especially when it comes to architecture and city design, but somewhere during the 50's we went hardcore into the "modern" world just for the sake of it.

Thought to self "Crystal Palace?" And lo! There it is. :) Also was thinking about Adolf Loos and the publication of Ornament and Crime. Also Louis Sullivan is interesting, as even though it was high-rises his work often incorporated the classical tripartite idea of base, shaft, and entablature. It is always hard to pin down, of course, since it's a continuum of philosophical thought (which to me is more the oomph behind a "movement" than a particular aesthetic), but it does seem to have gelled and gained a tipping point around the early part of the 20th century. As an imaginary line in the sand, it's as good a time as any. :)

The birth of the International style as coined by Philip Johnson really defined and amalgamated the concept of architecture as utilitarian. The construction of brasilia cemented its most vanguardist ideas and post modernism and brutalism diverged from the purity of ideas and philosophy from people like mies, le corbusier, and gropius. What preceded it was not modern architecture. It was the early adoption of modern building methods and and experimenting with how they would of the would. Loved the video

Modern architecture in my eyes are departure from classical reference. Besides, materials are different? Glass, concrete steel, insulation material, living facilities, such as hot water, air conditioners, internet, natural gas. I like it very much, but i think what is more important is how people use it. Living in city like NY is not good because living downbelow feels like living in a prison. Walking in the streets can have pressure because everything is high. I think city planners can notice that people living quality is more important. Trees, humidity, how high the building, how dense the block, what color, what material, river element, noise control element, walkability, easy access, bike-friendly, etc...

I think everything has its place. Classic architecture can be great for many public buildings and sometimes houses. Modern architecture is also good for modern museums and galleries, as well as opera houses and office buildings. I don't agree with the notion that a city must only have one kind of architecture, be it old or new.

In Germany, Bauhaus planted the seed of Modern Architecture , but only in the aftermath of the war it grew, destroyed cities and big population shifts because of refugees were the perfect opportunity for utopian projects. the open spaces with seperated buildings were also seen as a good strategic advantage. Although no one said it out loud, they chose this design for it´s difficult distruction through bomb raids or nuclear bombs.

I think that in the future, even if we find a conventional year that for the beginning of the modern architecture, we will be forced to check out an other name for the XIX-XX century architecture. In this particular historical period I think that Crystal palace could be useful to sign the beginning of a new "architect period" but than? In the future, maybe in 100 years we'll find that what now is modern that day will be very ancient so, for me we should try to consider a post-industrial revolution and a reconstruction period after the I-IIWW.

I hate cheap looking apartment buildings like "The Projects" in New York for example and modern subdivisions with many literally identical houses are boring but I love modern "minimal" architecture that's currently used a lot. I also like historical architecture but honestly a lot of that can look pretty similar to other buildings built back then to. Trends just come and go. Frank Lloyd Wright designed a lot of stuff I like, I consider the 50's to be when modern architecture really took off.
