Makers of 20th Century Modern Architecture

Influential 20th-century architects

The most influential 20th-century architects espousing modernism are brought together in critical discussion and independent profiles. This is accomplished through a short but discriminating examination of each architect's design work, an essay outlining the historical course and events that confirms his or her vital position, and a substantial bibliography at the completion of each profile.
