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.

Author's perspective · Modern Movement declined because of its ideal of exposing structural elements
