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.

Author's perspective ·
Supporters of Modern Movement partially caused its decline
Historical context ·
Modern Movement not popular with the public, but its supporters pushed it on people
Supporters got the movement to become mainstream, and highlighted only "modern" aspects of famous architects.

Elaborate on author's perspective ·
How Modern Movement declined
Modernist architects were ignorant of building methods and were too focused on aesthetics.
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.

Which one of the following ██ ████ ███████ ██ ███ ████████████ █████████ ██ ███ ███████ ███████ ███ ███ ███████ ██ ███ ████████ ████████ ███ █████████████████████ █████████████
a
Clothing produced on ██ ████████ ████ ██ ████ █████████ ████████ ████ ████████ ████████ ██ █ ██████ ███████ ██████
This is the best answer. It shows how having more people involved in production (assembly line vs. single garment maker) leads to more inaccuracy (less precisely tailored). This is analogous to the way in which more people involved in construction during/after the 20th century led to more inaccuracy.
b
Handwoven fabric is ████ █████████ ████ ██████ ████████ ██ ████████
This doesn’t show how an increase in the number of people involved in making something leads to more inaccuracy.
c
Lenses ground on █ ███████ ███ ████ ██████ ████ ██████ ██████ ██ █████
This doesn’t show how an increase in the number of people involved in making something leads to more inaccuracy.
d
Form letters produced ██ █ ████ █████████ ██████ █████ █████████ ████ ███████ █████ ████████████ ██ █ ███████████
This doesn’t show how an increase in the number of people involved in making something leads to more inaccuracy.
e
Furniture produced in █ ███████ ██ ████ ███████████ ████ ███████████ ██████████
This doesn’t show how an increase in the number of people involved in making something leads to more inaccuracy.
