Intro topic ·the Modern Movement in architecture
Supporters of the movement said Modernist stuff reflected modern technology and the newest building methods better than older architecture styles. But, it didn't fit how buildings were actually made.
Additional important factor ·Construction industry became more specialized and fragmented
This meant an architect's design had to allow for a bunch of different operations. But Modernist designs wanted to expose the structural materials of the building, which was difficult and expensive to do when so many different construction operations were involved.
Author's perspective ·Modern Movement declined because of its ideal of exposing structural elements
