Description

Design in the Fin de Siècle. Responses to Modernism from new modernists (Moshe Safdie, Shadrack Woods and Archigram) to Robert Venturi's Learning from Las Vegas. Post-modernists such as Michael Graves reject a single style and steer architecture towards pure art while edge cities eviscerate central cities to support the service and information economy.
