Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book takes a discerning look at the development of French architecture in the 20th century, which found itself in a transitional state at the outset, grappling with the after-effects of 19th-century historicism. In response, architects sought to break away from formalism by embracing a new, functional approach to design. The author highlights the impact of technological advancements in construction methods and materials, such as metal and concrete, which enabled architects to explore innovative forms and achieve greater structural freedom. Key figures in this architectural revolution are examined, including Viollet-le-Duc, whose writings laid the groundwork for a rational and scientific approach to architecture, and Tony Garnier, who proposed ambitious utopian designs that prioritized social and hygienic considerations. The book further explores the influence of social and economic factors on architectural development, showing how the need for affordable housing and the rise of new building types, such as factories and skyscrapers, shaped the urban landscape. Ultimately, this book offers a comprehensive and nuanced analysis of an era that ushered in a paradigm shift in architectural thought and practice, leaving a profound legacy on our built environment.
