“From Bauhaus to our house by Mr.Tom Wolfe”

After reading “From Bauhaus to our house by Mr.Tom Wolfe” which give me some new attitude about “Modernsim”. I agree with some part of this book but still disagree in some statement. The author of this book mentioned that modernism is a style that architects duplicate others works because most of them came with the project in similar results. Being mass design may not make them worthful in audience aspect. On one hand it’s like a disadvantage of modernism but on the other hand if focus on the progress and see how each architects complete their work we will found that they have their own progress which is unique to others. Similar results doesn’t mean similar progress.

As author mention a town which fulfilled high rise building as glass box which don’t worth in terms of arts or architecture because they are all same. But if look back to the previous decade we will found that architecture is like trend one day a whole town fulfilled with gothic church but decades later it consists of glass tower. If the author state that modernism is like a duplicated idea we might say all the architectures as well.
