Description
Postmodern Architecture Less is a Bore showcases the vibrant non-conformity of this 20th-century architectural movement. Emerging in the 1970s, Postmodernism reached its peak in the 1980s and 90s with eclectic styles that continue to influence architecture today. This curated collection features examples from around the globe, highlighting the movement's diverse range of hues and forms. From a rainbow of colours and shapes, Postmodern Architecture presents a unique perspective on the built environment. With nearly 40 years of popularity now behind it, this book offers a fascinating glimpse into one of the most controversial styles of the 20th century.
