Description

Tom Wolfe's From Bauhaus to Our House examines the influence of modern architecture on America's cities. The author critiques the work of influential European architects, including Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, Le Corbusier, and Walter Gropius, who designed buildings characterized by glass and steel boxes. Wolfe argues that these designs have had a lasting impact on urban landscapes.
