Presentation transcript:

The International Style Major architectural style in Europe & USA Began in the 1920’s – 1930’2 (1980’s) Term coined by Henry Russell Hitchcock and Phillip Johnson Philip Cortelyou Johnson (1906-2005) Henry-Russell Hitchcock (1903-1987)

The most important figures “The big three” Le Corbusier (France) Ludwig Mies van Rohe (Germany) Walter Gropius (Germany)

Nazi’s rejected the modern architecture forcing an entire generation of architects out of Europe. Mies fled to the USA in 1936 extending his influence and promoting Bauhaus which later became the primary source of architectural modernism. The International Style became the dominant approach for decades.

The International Style was striving towards: “Simplification, Honesty and Clarification” The ideals of the style can be summed up in four slogans: “ornament is a crime” “truth to materials” “form follows function” “machines for living” (Le Corbusier)

Identifying features/characteristics Modern structural principles and material (commercial and institutional buildings rather than housing) Concrete Glass Steel (most common) Occasionally reveals skeleton frame construction Exposing its structure Rejected non-essential decoration Ribbon windows Corner windows Bands of glass Balance and regularity Flat roof, without ledge Often with thin, metal mullions and smooth spandrel panels separating large, single-pane windows

The typical International Style high-rise usually consists of the following: Square or rectangular footprint Simple cubic "extruded rectangle" form Windows running in broken horizontal rows forming a grid All facade angles are 90 degrees

The most famous manifestations include: United Nations Headquarters Completed 1952 New York, NY Le Corbusier  

Seagram Building Completed 1957 New York, NY (park avenue) Ludwig Mies van Der Rohe (and Phillip Johnson)  

Access to new building technologies like reinforced concrete , and steel framework for building meant that designers could seek a whole new approach to what is known as the plan or the layout of the interiors of buildings. The enormous strength of these new materials opened new worlds for designers that were unheard of in building before.
