Modernism Without Modernity: The Rise of Modernist Architecture in Mexico, Brazil, and Argentina, 1890-1940 Abstract : Why did machine-age modernist architecture diffuse to Latin America so quickly after its rise in Continental Europe during the 1910s and 1920s? Why was it a more successful movement in relatively backward Brazil and Mexico than in more affluent and industrialized Argentina? After reviewing the historical development of architectural modernism in these three countries, several explanations are tested against the comparative evidence. Standards of living, industrialization, sociopolitical upheaval, and the absence of working-class consumerism are found to be limited as explanations. As in Europe, Modernism -

Interpretations of Organic Architecture
Melisa Unvan - Mimarlikta Bilimsel Arastirma Yontemleri Interpretations of Organic Architecture Authors: Martina Zbašnik-Senegaènik, Manja Kitek Kuzman University of Ljubljana Faculty of Architecture Slovenia - 1000 Ljubljana, Zoisova ulica 12 Technical Sciences / Architecture and Urban Planning Article Received / Accepted: 10. 9. 2014. / 8. 12. 2014. Abstract The notion of organic architecture originally sprung from the ideas of Viollet le-Duc and Ruskin, which influenced Wright and Gaudí. The second interpretation of organic architecture is based on mathematic and geometric laws that originate in nature. According to the third interpretation, organic architecture finds inspiration in nature and emulates the shapes of living organisms. Biomimicry computational geometry organic Gaudí, Antoni architecture Wright, Frank Lloyd Introduction The second half of the 19th century saw a new revival of Gothic architecture as well as the classical rules of Greek architecture. The proponents of these new architectural principles, Viollet-le-Duc and John Ruskin, were inspired by natural shapes and processes while simultaneously advocating the continuation of the medieval handcrafted art tradition as opposed to introducing new industrial methods. This article’s purpose is to define each interpretation of organic architecture, to find the respective most influential representatives, as well as to present the key laws that influenced architectural design and planning. https://tr.depositphotos.com/167514124/stock-illustration-organic-architecture-the-concept-of.html ORIGINS OF ORGANIC ARCHITECTURE Viollet-le-Duc John Ruskin Do not imitate nature Honest display of material and but construction emulate its laws Ornamentation https://yzarch.wordpress.com/2017/01/04/rethinking-architectural-vocabulary-2016/ http://www.victorianweb.org/authors/ruskin/7lamps/4.html Interpretations of Organic Architecture Louis Sullivan Louis Sullivan claimed that ”if the work is to be organic, the function of the parts must have the same quality as the function of the whole”. -

This community of 20,000 is blessed with rolling hills, charming historic architecture, and budgets big enough for graceful living. Its outskirts are latticed with old stone walls and peppered with luxe farmhouses and grazing deer. The town’s center, or “village district,” is a compact two-block elbow of shops that hinge from the rail depot (the arterial connection to New York City’s capital flows). Their exteriors are municipally regulated by Design Guidelines mandating Colonial building styles—red brick façades with white-framed windows, low-key signage, and other “charm-enhancing” elements.

Architectural Findings
Architectural Findings Summary of Architectural Trends 1940‐70 National architectural trends are evident within the survey area. The breakdown of mid‐20th‐ century styles and building types in the Architectural Findings section gives more detail about the Dayton metropolitan area’s built environment and its place within national architectural developments. In American Architecture: An Illustrated Encyclopedia, Cyril Harris defines Modern architecture as “A loosely applied term, used since the late 19th century, for buildings, in any of number of styles, in which emphasis in design is placed on functionalism, rationalism, and up‐to‐date methods of construction; in contrast with architectural styles based on historical precedents and traditional ways of building. Often includes Art Deco, Art Moderne, Bauhaus, Contemporary style, International Style, Organic architecture, and Streamline Moderne.” (Harris 217) The debate over traditional styles versus those without historic precedent had been occurring within the architectural community since the late 19th century when Louis Sullivan declared that form should follow function and Frank Lloyd Wright argued for a purely American expression of design that eschewed European influence. In 1940, as America was about to enter the middle decades of the 20th century, architects battled over the merits of traditional versus modern design. Both the traditional Period Revival, or conservative styles, and the early 20th‐century Modern styles lingered into the 1940s. Period revival styles, popular for decades, could still be found on commercial, governmental, institutional, and residential buildings. Among these styles were the Colonial Revival and its multiple variations, the Tudor Revival, and the Neo‐Classical Revival. As the century progressed, the Colonial Revival in particular would remain popular, used as ornament for Cape Cod and Ranch houses, apartment buildings, and commercial buildings.
