We're getting closer and closer to the Present and Pre-Future Age of Architecture.
Last Friday we discussed some of the early modern civilization which were the Industrial Revolution and the Art Deco.
In this eras, machinery and modern engineering were born. Its origins in Paris in the first decades of the 20th century. It evolved in Europe during the 1st world war until late 1930s
Characterized by lavish ornamentaion, superlative craftsmanship and fine materials.
Also characterized by sleek, streamlined forms; geometric patterns; and experiments with industrial materials such as metals, plastics, and glass.
People in these eras, were the ones who exposed the use of metal and introduced plastic and glass in the architecture and engineering society. I love seeing houses, buildings and structures made entirely in glass. It makes me feel like I'm living inside a diamond. And of course the ever reliable metal which is one of the strongest and sturdiest material there is for construction.
They did a very great start for the modern architecture era and I'm waiting for more for the next generations. :)
